Popularity rank 2 #125. Post-show with Kevin Edo

March 29, 2006

KULA: Great show tonight, Kevin. Now this tour is for a live album, right?
KEVIN EDO: Yeah. But we're not playing or singing live during the shows.

KEVIN EDO: So the album'll be live recordings of pre-recorded songs, with a little crowd noise in the background.

KEVIN EDO: We charge people for CDs, we charge them to hear the same recordings at our shows, and now we'll charge them to hear their own damn clapping.

KEVIN EDO: It's either interesting conceptual art... or a really dick thing to do. Either way, it'll be out in September. Listerine strip?
KULA: No... no thanks.

Popularity rank 3 #11. Where the lyrics come from

February 22, 2005

KULA: Kevin, I'm a huge fan. First, I have to ask, the lyrics of "Spiral Away", so moving. I mean, I wept the first time I heard--

KEVIN EDO: I copied them off a condon ad I saw sitting on the can in Detroit.
KULA: W-what?

KEVIN EDO: "Kevin," I thought. "You spend all this time, you know, thinkin' a words, when there's all these words already written all over the place!"

KULA: But... y-you... there's....
KEVIN EDO: "Too Little Time" is from my VCR manual.
