Santiago Durango Quotations

Our very first gig in Melbourne was a confrontation.

We never really wanted to play in California.

We played a gig and we had a song that was offensive to people of the Jewish persuasion, and we led off with it, and they were offended by it, and that was that.

We don't care about our audiences that much. We just go out and play.

No, we did one more as that Silver Abuse and for that we did a full set and we broke up 'cause I didn't want to play with them anymore.

They're there because, for some reason, they have the notion that they're supposed to be there.

No, that version of Silver Abuse has nothing to do with the original Silver Abuse, which spawned a whole army of inferior versions.

And make noise on instruments, and we got into punk, so we got this band together, with three guitars because we couldn't afford amps.

I don't have a driving desire to be all encompassing and world powerful or anything.

There's fifty bands doing my riffs for ever and ever.

And there was no money in Chicago for a band.

Until these college students came into town, we were all very poor and didn't have money to do anything.

And we used to do a lot of drugs and get very drunk on very cheap wine.

We were just a bunch of high school kids who got into the Ramones together.
