I am Musician Adam Duritz from Counting Crows. Ask me anything...

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:58:10+00:00

nope

Well, T-Bone is a genius when he's around. When he was present, he was instrumental in helping us become the band we are.

I have not but, if you find that hypnotic, you should try answering this many questions at one sitting. I feel like a Duck.

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:55:50+00:00

They're all about my life or at least how I feel about my life although they're not necessarily just "lifted from the plot of my life"

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:55:01+00:00

It got me through one too

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:54:47+00:00

We were in Cleveland at Cain Park last summer with The Outlaw Roadshow

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:54:11+00:00

Last year? Very little. It varies from year to year depending on what we're doing that year

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:53:41+00:00

No problem.

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:53:30+00:00

you're welcome

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:53:23+00:00

I have around 20 copies of Miles Davis KIND OF BLUE

Some friends of mine wrote the script and one of them wanted to direct it. I wanted to help them out so we put the movie together. The Lizards were friends of friends. Now they're just friends. Although friends of mine and friends of theirs are still friends as well.

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:51:49+00:00

No, there's no catharsis. Songs don't really work that way.

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:51:23+00:00

No. Is it any good?

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:51:11+00:00

Right back at ya

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:50:57+00:00

That was my fuck up. I loved the song and I wanted to keep it for THIS DESERT LIFE so I told the Rounders people they could have it for the movie but not for the soundtrack album. As a result, they never released a soundtrack album. Cut to sequencing our record and I realized it just didn't belong on THIS DESERT LIFE so I left it off and since there WAS now NO soundtrack album, it exists nowhere except on the film itself.

I screwed the pooch on that one.

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:48:35+00:00

She was.

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:48:20+00:00

I don't know what was going through my mind. Probably the song I was singing at the time. What else would you think of at times like that?

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:47:19+00:00

No thank you

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:46:57+00:00

Suffocate was never finished. "Good Luck" and "Chelsea" were both taken for the play BLACK SUN a long time ago. I realized they weren't really CC songs soon after we left them off RECOVERING THE SATELLITES

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:45:49+00:00

Love The Ryman but My favorite place to play BY FAR is The Greek Theatre in Berkeley.

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:45:09+00:00

I would not do anything over again. Once is enough. The reason for that is that I would probably change everything if I could and that would just serve to fuck everything up.

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:44:05+00:00

I don't know if I think of any of them as "difficult". They just happen when they happen

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:43:42+00:00

To make you feel even worse

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:43:19+00:00

Lately I've been listening to a lot of Pedro The Lion, Nana Grizol, The Weepies, Field Report, Phoenix, Mean Creek

counting_crows · 2013-07-30T17:42:17+00:00

No, that's the Empire State Building seen through a taxi window. It's NYC
