It's an Eno Quote

I love to get things started
I love to help them along
I believe I have seen what's coming
Let me show you what I found

We're time bandits
We're digging in the crates
Just a gang of thieves
But it's not that we're ungrateful

Nowadays it's easy to start a band
Get out, get around
Give me a morsel from this plate of sound
It's a mess, yes
It's electrified
We jam hot
We jam cool
Oh yeah, we jam econo, too

This black mass of information
This vast and awful book
There is fire in the rock
But don't look, oh, please, don't look

Whatever you now find weird, uncomfortable
And nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature

This black mass of information
This hot galaxy of song
There's something hiding in the center
If you must look... don't look long

Nowadays it's easy to start a band
Get out, get around
The distortion, the jitter, the crap sound
All of these things will be cherished
So you might as well cherish them now

Oh, it's so easy to start a band!
