More From Brian Molko

Cool is spent. cool is empty. cool is ex post facto. when advertisers and pundits hoard a word, you know it's time to retire from it. to move on. i want to suggest, therefore, that we begin to avoid cool now. cool is a trick to get you to buy garments made by sweatshop laborers in third world countries. cool is the triumph of the will. cool enables you to step over bodies. cool enables you to look the other way. cool makes you functional, eager for routine distraction, passive, doped, stupid.
Country Stupid Moving
You don't want to move toward some utopian literary situation where everybody's free of all conventions. that's ridiculous! conventions are what you need. you have nothing to break down if you don't have conventions.

The washington establishment does not like the tea party. don't you love all these politicians that run around and campaign as outsiders, anti-establishment, 'i'm not part of that washington culture.' well, then join the tea party, 'cause that's who's really anti-establishment, that's who's really a bunch of outsiders is the tea party. but you don't see those politicians who want to be considered outsiders joining or embracing the tea party, do you?
Running Party Tea
I like comic conventions. i genuinely like comic conventions. i like wandering around from table to table; i like wandering up and down artist's alley and saying "hello" to people. i like hanging out on the dc booth. i can't do that anymore. i'd like to, but i can't. i physically can't. if i stop moving, somebody will come up to me with something to sign, and if i sign it, somehow it's like ants sensing sugar. there will be fifty or a hundred people around me and then fire marshals will come and then i'm trapped in a crowd. it's bizarre.
Moving Artist Fire
I felt that, as time went on, an audience gets to know you and in a weird way, you kind of feel like you get to know the audience a little bit. when i'm doing stand-up gigs now, i feel like i'm doing gigs in front of people i know. i think that's the result of doing late-night shows for so long.
Thinking Long People
Awkwardness gives me great comfort. i've never been cool, but i've felt cool. i've been in the cool place, but i wasn't really cool - i was trying to pass for hip or cool. it's the awkwardness that's nice.
Nice Giving Trying

Sometimes it would be nice not to have to do my best. sometimes it would just be nice not to have a crisis to deal with. - anita blake

I like working. i wish i could say i made a deliberate choice to comedy, but it's just what came my way. it's what the studios wanted to make. some of my friends were doing it, like will ferrell and adam mckay, and they offered me 'talladega nights.' it's just nice work if you can get it. it's a joyful day at work, making your friends laugh.
Nice Night Laughing
