Enjoy, my brothers and sisters.

Thanks....hadn't seen that one
You've said that Mike (Patton) is the author of everything and you guys try to make him satisfied with how his vision is coming out.
Absolutely.
In that way would it be fair to say that he is a modern day Don Van Vliet (aka Captain Beefheart) and you guys are his Magic Band?
I guess so.
That a pretty big compliment... and here i thought they hated each other.

They do. Or at least Buzz hates Patton, he's getting sick and tired of him.

Sect!: "Have you thought about doing a follow-up album?"
Buzzo: "Ah, that's up to Mike. I like playing this stuff. It's really different than anything I've ever done... and I like that. I like that aspect of the whole thing. It's different than the Melvins. I approach it differently. I play differently. I think about it differently. It's a totally different thing, and that really attracts me to the project. Definitely.

His well warranted rants keep getting better and better.
greatest line:
Things could be really cool. They could be! Why aren't they? Is it because these bands are good? No. It's because people are stupid.

That's a pretty good interview actually.
That interview was great. He asked and answered some of his own questions.
"You've managed to do the right thing.
Yeah, but I'm as rare as a dodo bird. Or a DO DO bird (laughs). I dunno, most bands just wanna be big stars. That wouldn't happen to me even if I tried."
DO DO bird hey? a Houdini 2005 cover-art connection? me thinks yes.

I don't get it, how does that quote mean that Buzz hates Patton? He said he really likes "the project"

Ohh, now I get it. Well, I still don't get it in the first place because there's nothing to get, but I get why I don't get it. Get it?
It seems like many people who are currently working with Patton or who have worked with him in the past Dislike him. Yet they maintain that the music that was created with him during that period is really good and something that they couldn't of come up on their own.
Conclusion: Buzz doesn't mind having a bad working relationship with an egomaniac as long as he loves the end result.
