- [Jimi] I don't think so, not the way I'd like to live.

Because like I want to get up in the morning

and just roll over in my bed into an indoor swimming pool.

you know come up for air and get maybe a drink

Then it's from the chair into the swimming pool

- [Keith] You don't want to live just comfortably,

the days of the baubles and bangles and the freaky hairstyle

- [Jimi] Yeah but see everybody goes through

and you wear all these different things, you know.

I just did that cause like I felt like I was being too loud

I don't want it to be this only hyped up on

so I just started cutting hair and that started

the rings disappearing one by one. (laughs)

One time I said, maybe I should burn a guitar tonight.

(laughs) Smash a guitar or something like that.

You know like with destruction and all that.

But I believe everybody should have a room

where they can get rid of all their releases,

But the way I write things, I just write them

with a clash between reality and fantasy mostly.

As a word reality is nothing but each individual's

And then the establishment grabs a big piece of that.

You know all I write is that what I feel that's all.

I just keep it almost naked almost, you know.

you're flipping around and flashing around

So like, well I was trying to do too many things

at the same time, which is my nature, you know.

Or only as tap dancer or something like this (laughs).

- [Keith] I think certain people think of your music

If it was up to me there would be no such thing

- [Keith] Do you have any politics in fact yourself?

I was getting ready to get into all that,

but like I mean you know everybody goes through

I'm just, it all comes out in the music most of the time.

We have this one song called "Straight Ahead."

And it just says, like, power to the people,
