Mike Watt

John Kenyon runs a nice interview with one of my musical heroes, Mike Watt.

New groups are about new musical situations, new places to learn from. I think it helps me keep relevant somehow, keeps the bass from being just a machine and a means to help me keep learning. The different musical situations are like different "classrooms" and I sincerely believe everyone has something to teach me. I'm trying to cram as much as I can in the amount of life I have left...I think about my life... I think, "I'm here to learn!"

Thirty years in the business, and he's still eager to learn. I really admire that.
