In life you will meet many people who just don’t give a fuck about you. DO NOT waste your time trying to impress them. It won’t work anyway. Just have enough pride & self-respect to realize that some people are never going to like you much and that’s totally fucking fine.

sometimes at a show I end up watching a member of the crowd who’s just totally lost in their own little world, fully hypnotised by music / gloves / lights / lasers, whatever. electronic music is about escapism and seeing people escape, however briefly, means a job well done.
