JOHN WOZNIAK

I sing and play guitar in the band 'Marcy Playground'.

My mother taught me that the universe guides, teaches, and offers up gifts... even when bad things happen.

I was never able to get through Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. I've never been able to make it through. And I love the Smashing Pumpkins, they're one of my favorite bands ever, but I've never been able to listen to the whole thing all the way through.

Well, when I was younger, in high school, I started out smoking pot. Which escalated into taking acid on a regular basis, which escalated into selling acid. And then I started, when I went to college, I started doing opiates.

A song called Never. Which we never play. But it's a great song.

The way I wanted to write it, is with a hero, or sort of a pure character who was the protagonist. And the antagonists were these demonic evil children, cause when you're a kid, seven or eight years old, and you're looking at the world around you - everything seems black or white, good or bad.

My brain doesn't have enough time to play around like that. To get limber enough to have a nightmare.

No, we'll never get back together. We'll remain friends, but I see her going in a completely different direction than me musically. But she'll end up doing really well if she continues on the path she's on. Because she's doing something very original.

Call me Woz.

Yeah, I might remaster it, in fact I'm sure I would. But all the songs will be the same.

People stopped hanging out with me at the point when I stopped doing drugs. All of a sudden they didn't wanna hang out with me anymore. And I would have hung out with them. I mean they were killing themselves, but I still would have hung out with them.

He's a tremendous guy. And what's more, he's virtually a genius in the field of management.
