Doug Fieger (Douglas Lars Fieger) Quotes

For us, we were a "live" band making music that was basically "live" music. There was no need for us to do it longer. We were ready to make a record. And we play and sing at the same time. We didn't do a lot of overdubs. Berton played his lead guitar part. We can play, that's the other thing. The band is actually fairly competent on their instruments.
