I hate living in a really small apartment, living in a shoebox, not being able to play the drums, not having space. It sucks.

More quotes by Mac DeMarco
I'm getting paid to tour and travel and I don't have to work a shitty job. And it's weird because you like start getting pissed off about that.
Mac DeMarco
I had a band called the Sound Of Love and that was R&B songs about girls in my high school. I played in some other indie bands who were trying to make it big those sucked. Then I started Makeout Videotape and that was that.
Mac DeMarco
I have a lot of friends that I'd like to shout out but I don't think anyone will know who they are.
Mac DeMarco
If I feel like I'm going too far in one direction, I just can it. It's a weird thing. Some of my songs might be cheesy I try and keep it light. It's hard to explain.
Mac DeMarco
It was weird [touring with them]. It felt more like we were playing for Phoenix. They asked us because they're fans of what we do.
Mac DeMarco
I've recorded at home since I was a teenager, and I'm able to sit here in my underwear and keep trying different things until something works. I think if I did that in a studio the engineer would be like, What the hell is wrong with you?
Mac DeMarco
I don't have that much experience in the studio, but I'm always really uncomfortable when I'm there. You're on the clock and it costs a lot of money.
Mac DeMarco
[ If I wasn't making music ] I'd probably end up going to school, I never went to school. Or just give up and get my plumber's ticket and move back to Edmonton and become an alcoholic.
Mac DeMarco
I think recording at home feels more organic, and injects some more personality into the music.
Mac DeMarco
I do like touring. Sometimes it's crazy. We're really lucky and we've gone all over the world. You can't complain about getting paid to see the world. I've had to reel myself in a little bit at some points.
Mac DeMarco
Regardless of how funny I want to be, I don't ever have a problem speaking from my heart or speaking honestly to people.
Mac DeMarco
[My House By The Water] is a nice instrumental track. The sound of the water is from the same place where the front photo was taken. I live really close to the airport, so there's also planes going over. It's kind of to remind me of living in there, because I'm not gonna be living in there for very much longer.
Mac DeMarco
I mean it was weird. But Phoenix watched us every night. But it's like they're not even a band, they're like a corporation. They bring a staff of like 40 people.
Mac DeMarco
When you're growing up, you just take what you've got.
Mac DeMarco
In Europe, people tend to be very respectful. They try not to make too much noise at inappropriate times. In other countries, people can be very still. Sometimes I'm not sure if a crowd is into it until the end, when they usually want me to do something crazy for the encore.
Mac DeMarco
I never liked living in Montreal. And I don't really like the music scene there. It was never my cup of tea, and I never felt like I ever fit in.
Mac DeMarco
I was having a good time before, but you grow up after a couple years and realize, I can't get drunk like this every night. Things change.
Mac DeMarco
Journalists say my music is blue wave, or dreamy, or jangly-slacker jewel, and none of it really makes sense to me.
Mac DeMarco
Going on tour, you don't have a lot of time to mull things over. You're just kind of, Another beer, another show, another song.
Mac DeMarco
Perfectionist? Thats not something I am.
