He joked that Pavement members were not always keen on the project.
Some of the band wanted nothing to do with this, he quipped.
They were like Wait, cool people like this.
Now, they like it.
Perry added it was a cathartic experience.
My guard is never up, its always down.
What drove me out of the band is I get hurt easily.
Im very emotional, Im a fucking cry baby.
Everybody is intimidated by me, and they are scared of me for some weird reason.
But Im a pussy.
But Im always open.
I want people to have that experience of true honesty.
She was similarly emotional during the Q&A.
I dont protect myself enough.
Im always going to be just uncomfortable.
I dont know what happiness truly feels like.
But Im getting old, so I better figure it out fucking quickly.
Thats the unfortunate side of the business.
But the festival will have a fallow year next year.
