"Everyone’s asked me that this morning, but I honestly have no real idea. I think the way people look at this band is out of my understanding. I either feel negatively about it or I don’t really have any opinion, so I can’t really answer that question in any way that’s going to make sense to a reader.

No one else has as much invested in this band as I do, so it’s pointless for me to even try going into how I feel about that and how they feel about it. I can’t really be bothered. I hope they like it, but beyond that, I just can’t talk about it. Do you know what I mean?"

- Jake Stone of Bluejuice, talking to Rohan Williams of Scene Magazine in a very frank interview. I used to know Jake on the Aussie band circuit, and his group Bluejuice have consistently been one of my most favourite Aussie bands. This interview is like watching a car crash, but it's interesting to hear someone speak frankly about struggling with depression and the sometimes unfulfilling nature of the music industry and being creative. I really hope he cheers up soon though. He's a very talented guy.
