Fortress of Solitude,Aversion interviews TIM BARRY

[Guest Admin]

Aversion.com recently interviewed Tim Barry in a feature entitled, "Fortress of Solitude". It's a great piece that I highly recommend you read. Here's a couple of excerpts from the article:

Barry isn't some sort of Unabomber creep brandishing an acoustic guitar just because he's fond of his personal time. To survive as a touring musician for the past two decades, he could hardly be an antisocial weirdo. - Matt Schild

"I'm going to be completely honest. I don't know how many good years I have left," he admits. "The lifestyle on the road is pretty intense. If you were completely sober and did it, it would batter you and beat you and tear you up after 20 years. I drank and I smoked cigarettes and I smoked weed. I'll often opt to stay up with great people than sleep for a full eight hours. It tears at you. It's not something I'm ashamed of. It's just the way I've always lived and I love it. No pity, no bullshit. It's a lifestyle choice." - Tim Barry

It's a great read so if you have the time, please follow this link:
