Terrific quote from Thurston Moore about how breaking up could have been a better career move for Sonic Youth:
"The Pixies reunion was a real success, and Dinosaur Jr. seems like a big success,
and both those bands play as good as they ever did. Mission Of Burma
blew my mind when they came back. But a band like us never did break
up. Which was to our own detriment. What would have happened if we did
break up after Daydream Nation - or even
after Dirty - and had gotten back together two years ago? You'd be interviewing me at the Chateau Marmont as I'm waiting for my
limousine. We probably would have made so much money. "This was our
biggest career faux-pas - not breaking up."
