From the best Rock & Roll Book ever assembled to my knowledge. About finding your medium.
'Me and Tom Verlaine went together to see the New York Dolls at the Mercer Arts Center - and the Dolls had a lot to do with me wanting to do a band. There was just so much more excitement in rock & roll than sitting at home writing poetry. The possibilities were endless. I mean I could deal with the same matters that I'd be sweating over alone in my room, to put out little mimeograph magazines that five people would ever see. And we definitely thought we were as cool as the next people, so why not get out there and sell it?'
