More From Eddie Van Halen

I have a hard time writing. most writers have a hard time writing. i have a harder time than most because i'm lazier than most. [...] the other problem i have is fear of writing. the act of writing puts you in confrontation with yourself, which is why i think writers assiduously avoid writing. [...] not writing is more of a psychological problem than a writing problem. all the time i'm not writing i feel like a criminal. [...] it's horrible to feel felonious every second of the day. especially when it goes on for years. it's much more relaxing actually to work.
Writing Hard Times Thinking
I've been writing for a long time, since the late '60s. but it hasn't been in the same form. i used to write scripts for television. i wrote for my comedy act. then i wrote screenplays, and then i started writing new yorker essays, and then i started writing plays. i didn't start writing prose, really, until the new yorker essays, but they were comic. i didn't start writing prose, really, until the '90s. in my head, there was a link between everything. one thing led to another.
Writing Play Long
Planning to write is not writing. outlining, researching, talking to people about what you're doing - none of that is writing. writing is writing. writing is like driving at night in the fog. you can only see as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.
Writing Night Fog
"no one is doing what we're doing." this is a bummer of a lie because there are only two logical conclusions. first, no one else is doing this because there is no market for it. second, the entrepreneur is so clueless that he can't even use google to figure out he has competition. suffice it to say that the lack of a market and cluelessness is not conducive to securing an investment. as a rule of thumb, if you have a good idea, five companies are going the same thing. if you have a great idea, fifteen companies are doing the same thing.
Lying Clueless Ideas
They will do more whether we do what we're doing or whether we don't do what we're doing. and the idea that you could appease them [terrorists] by stopping doing what we're doing or some implication that by doing what we're doing we're inciting them to attack us is just utter nonsense. it's just - it's kind of like feeding an alligator, hoping it eats you last.
Ideas Stopping Lasts
When i'm doing interviews, i'm doing interviews, and when i am writing, i'm writing. i sit there with a musician and i write. it's the same process since i started writing in my twenties. i like to come in and leave with a finished song.

It's just that none of us had the wit or talent to make them into songs. we made them into life, which much messier, and more time consuming, and leaves nothing for anybody to whistle.
