So what you said in the beginning that
you're
thinking about your regrets
changed completely.
So can you elaborate on that maybe?
What changed within yourself?
Yeah, it's funny because the book became different.
When I was first asked that question,
I thought we were writing a bit more of like a rock and roll book, right?
And so, well, I don't know, but I thought, you know, you asked,
do you have any regrets?
And I'm like, fuck no.
You know, that's the kind of, you know, that's the answer that,
[E] fuck, I don't know, a person who's in a rock and roll band will say, right?
Fuck no, [N] I have no regrets, you know.
But actually I have a lot of regrets and
and
most of that is because I understand now what life,
what life has to offer, you know, and
I'd spent 20 years taking heroin, 10 years trying to stop taking heroin, which was an enormous,
it was an agonizing period, an enormous waste of time, you know.
I regret that, that I didn't just,
you know, that it took me that long to sort of get around to it.
I mean,
you know, I mean, fuck, I have loads of them.
Don't get me started, actually.
Now I'm sitting here, I'm getting incredibly depressed.
But I, but you know, there's a lot of things that you start to look back at your [C#] life and think, look,
I could have done that better, [C] and I wish I had have done that better, and I wish I hadn't have said that thing to
that person, and I wish I hadn't have done that thing, and
you, I mean, maybe that's what getting older is, is you just accumulate
regrets, and those regrets manifest themselves also as kind of disappointments or [E] losses,
and
maybe that's what getting older is, is just
[N] an accumulation of loss
that turns you into a different sort of person.
It turns you into an actual person, I
think, you know.
That was all right.
That was really good.
That's not even in the book.
No, that's in volume two.
