Hunx

I think fashion should be funny. Seriously!

I don't have any qualms about selling out.

I've never been in a band where I didn't dress up. It just feels very me.

As soon as the makeup comes on, I transform myself. I like being an entertainer and putting on a show.

Just because I have a sense of humor and use bright colors, people always say it's 'camp.' I'm just doing my thing. I think of it as art.

Falling off stages or making out with gross guys isn't something I'm very fond of.

I think I'm a really sweet guy, kind of shy and nice and stuff.

If I wanted to make a subversive record, it would be horrifying and insane.

I don't understand why you have to be one boring thing your whole life. Why can't you just do whatever you want all the time?

I have extreme ADD, and I'm into all kinds of stuff.

Gravy Train!!!! started out as a joke where we'd crash parties and be really obnoxious, and then somehow we got somewhat famous, and it was really weird.

Somebody once described my music as 'Hairdresser Pop.' I don't know what that sounds like.

In San Francisco, I lived in Bayview-Hunters Point.

The idea of taking a brand that already exists and making a really poor-looking version of it, with acrylic or puffy paint, is really aesthetically pleasing to my eyes and also funny.

Often, I feel like a cheap imitation aesthetically looks better to me than the real, out-of-reach thing. It's amazing that brands create a whole illusion of exclusivity and luxury, and then you can go get the $5 version of a $30,000 thing and feel the same way but have a cool little secret.

I love the idea of not being able to afford something and just making your own version or buying a cheap knock-off instead.

I traded all my 'Star Wars' toys for Pee-wee Herman toys. I wonder if I had a crush or him or something? The colors and the way that everything looked so cool or crazy just appealed to me as a young gay in Tucson.

I'm bored of just being in a band and touring.

Bouncers suck.

Women that hate other women - that's the worst.

I wear a lot of wigs and stuff on stage to make my hair look bigger.

I dress kind of flashy.

People should be themselves.

Hunx was more punk, and Seth Bogart is more pop and plastic.

I love it at our shows when there's the big, tough, punk guys standing next to the weird teenagers and the gay guys. It's so weird, and it's so awesome.

I just find it weird if you're in a band and you don't know how to make it look the way it sounds. You really need to be involved with the entire creative process in order for it to totally work.

There's one side of me that just wants to get up on stage and be punk and go crazy and stuff like that; and there's also this other side of me that's like a grandma - really into arts and crafts.

I think, if anything, it would be fun to play at house parties or in Japan.

Sometimes I fantasize about becoming a cartoon and only making music for cartoons. I can easily visualize my future in music when I go into that fantasy in my head.

I'm not sure, exactly, why someone would want to move to S.F. or N.Y.C., even. I would only wanna live in L.A. or a tiny town like Provincetown or Palm Springs or Guerneville or something like that.

Several times, I've been talking with some gross person at a party and had them literally walk away - mid convo - to ruthlessly approach someone more famous.

I'm basically a mom who loves vision boards, dream lists, and 'The Secret.'

I like keeping an ongoing list of dream collaborators on my phone. I like to write down all of my dreams, actually.

'Hairdresser Blues' was written when I was deep in a ten-year depression that I escaped shortly after recording that album. I don't like that album.

I'm from Tucson, Arizona.

I hate Victoria's Secret but can definitely get into Forever 21.

I hate old white men.

Beauty school gave me brain damage.

Hunx is kind of just, like, a really trashy punk band, honestly.

I really like Mark Mothersbaugh.

I really love 'Hairspray.' I love the idea of this teenage dance show where you have to go through all these competitions to get to the next level.

I'm a strong believer in just doing your thing. No matter what.

Gravy Train!!!! damaged me because I don't think I will ever again experience something so intense and exciting. We were so young and pent up - and didn't care about anything else in the world.

I blacked out my childhood after a string of traumatic events in my late adolescence.

I just feel like, unfortunately, I'm a person that has to be creative to live. Whether that's, like, painting or making sculptures or writing songs, sometimes I just feel like that's the only thing you can do.

I would get plastic surgery. It sounds fun.

I have so many photos of myself in my room when I was a kid; I had one wall that was all TLC posters that I got free at some record store, then another wall was all Public Enemy, and the last wall was all '90210.'

Honestly, I find so many fields - fashion, art, music - totally boring and restricting if you just stick to one of them and try so hard to fit into that thing.

I have zero morals about television. I just want to be entertained.

I live for Snooki. She's so cute. I love her so much.
