@YesOuiSi Sounded coherent to me and so does his music, plus he was smoking which improved the quality of the interview! :-)

The show at Le Poison Rouge was fantastic, and I guarantee yall have never heard anything like it before.

Also Glenn Branca hugged me and I was never happier in my life.

Yeah, this shit hole world can be pretty easy place to hate Glenn.

Excellent interview. Thank you!

I like the music he composes.  This interview seems to lack coherence. I wonder if he may have had a little bit too much to drink.
