I called him Kenny Mayne. He was kind of ticked about that, so no way was he putting The Duck on his head. But he gave us a picture.

Without The Duck, asking a coach for a picture, you just feel like a goofy fan. But with The Duck it's OK. It's like an alter ego.

She wouldn't have anything to do with us. We weren't going to push it, either. I figured there were Secret Service agents hanging around who'd have been all too happy to pull a Jack Bauer on me.

It's a fun, creative outlet for both of us.

They called themselves that because (Mississippi) is where the crack was coming from. There's a federal investigation that's kind of parallel with this; but I'm not sure if there are any federal charges going along with this at this time.

I wish to fuck that we were putting it out sooner. I'm so excited about it and I'm so ready for it to be part of the public consciousness. It's a lot different to 'By The Way'. There are some profoundly funky songs and then there are songs that are new for us and don't sound like anything.
