We need to organize and figure out our own voice as a bloc and stop doubting ourselves.
Alison Pill
Okay, I get kicked off the drums when I try and...the notes just keep coming at you and I'm like Ahhhhh! I can't do it. I have literally gotten booed off the stage way too many times. It's terrorizing. The rest of my band mates just are...they tell me to get off. I'm like, I can play bass. Dunk, dunk, dunk, dunk.
Alison Pill
The biggest thing about growing up in Canada is you know that Los Angeles and New York are not the only places in the world. They're not the only places where brilliant acting happens.
Alison Pill
I find it very hard to believe that people would prefer an awkward picture with me than a normal conversation.
Alison Pill
I can't even vote in America!
Alison Pill
But it's been funny to try and carry the through line, but I think the main thing is the relationship that the band has because we have spent now all this time together that I think that's sort of what we returning to. And whenever we get to play together, it still sort of returns to that little shitty rehearsal space. So that's good.

It's not just politicians who underestimate us we underestimate ourselves.
Alison Pill
I don't have any trouble believing that you would avoid something seemingly perfect because you're in something you really want to prove to yourself you can do right.

Alison Pill
Sitting out of politics isn't really an option if you don't want things to slide.
Alison Pill
And then we came here for three weeks of band rehearsal with [music consultant/member of the band Sloan] Chris Murphy. And I grew up in Toronto during Sloan's heyday, so like I was like Oh my god! And so that was pretty cool.
Alison Pill
True badassery has no gender.
Alison Pill
I learned to drum and I'm very excited today. Well, first of all I got to...I learned when I was in New York I sort of did some prepping with just learning basic stuff like beating my couch next to my drum teacher, who's this incredible guy named Charlie Green.
Alison Pill
Nobody wants anything bad to happen the other side isn't evil.
Alison Pill
The biggest thing I've noticed with some of my favorite directors is their gift of sticking a bunch of strangers in a room together and making them comfortable and making them into a cohesive group. There's magic involved, because you don't know why anybody would pick this group of people.
Alison Pill
Well, it's sort of funny to try and get that balance between just accepting the reality of my friend [co-star Satya Bhabha] flying in from the ceiling of the theatre and like starting to do a dance with demon hipster chicks. It's like, so how do we react when he throws fireballs? Are we surprised? Does this happen a lot?
Alison Pill
I didn't like most of my boyfriends. I'm a perfect example of somebody who will make it work no matter what. Like, I once had a guy move in with me. He was my least favorite. Nobody who went out with us knew that we were together. I just would not give off the vibe.
Alison Pill
I think it's just different to get married for a woman than it is for a man. The amount of work to overcome certain gender roles in the partnership - just the expectation of housework, kid-work, whatever it is.
