There hasn't been a bigger influence on me musically; there may not have been a bigger influence on me philosophically. I wrote my college entrance essay on the guy. There was never a point in my life where his music wasn't a part of it, including before I was born.

I've been meaning to write Pete a letter for years to say all that and more, and especially thanking him for being himself. I'll always regret not doing it.
