Some of my favourites... there's the classics like Blur and Oasis and Pulp, Suede and The Charlatans, The La's, The Smiths, The Cure, stuff like that.

I mean, obviously R.E.M. had done it, and Husker Du and the Replacements had done it, and maybe Soul Asylum, but that was probably about it. Those four bands were pretty much the only ones from that milieu that had signed to a major.

Before I decided to concentrate on writing, I drew pictures and painted, and made Super 8 experimental movies.

So I was kind of all over the place in my interests and far-flung in terms of where my creativity wanted to end up.
