More quotes by Mac DeMarco
I like guitar. It just turned out that it's the instrument I learned to play. I have a lot of respect for it and I'm learning more and more everyday.
Mac DeMarco
I get asked that a lot: What do you think your role is, with all the people that look up to you? I'm an entertainer, you know? I'm not trying to bombard anybody with anything, but at the same time, face-to-face or in real life, if I'm talking to some kid, I have opinions just like everybody else does.
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
Once a song comes out, these songs aren't mine. They're everybody's. So there you go.
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.

I thought I knew Elton John, but then it was like, Woah, Elton's a pimp! He's really amazing. And since Billy and Elton are homies, I'm finally getting it - the two piano boys.
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 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
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
I take making music seriously, but you have to have a sense of humor about yourself. I invite people into my life. That's how I do it.
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
I hate living in a really small apartment, living in a shoebox, not being able to play the drums, not having space. It sucks.
Mac DeMarco
I don't think anybody has a choice. Everybody has to kind of interact with all the craziness right now. I don't like to engage - a lot of people made a point of doing the social media thing, and I think that social media is complete trash, so I treat it like that. I like Instagram. I like the funny photos. Other than that, it's not for me.
Mac DeMarco
I mean, Manhattan is cool. But weird parts, I like that. Jamaica, Queens, that's great.
Mac DeMarco
Their [Phoenix] audience wasn't into us at all. The way most of the venues worked was there was no alcohol on the floor so usually during our set most people were in the lobby getting their drink on.
Mac DeMarco
I think recording at home feels more organic, and injects some more personality into the music.
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
Patience is important, and also, if you don't want to do it, don't do it. But if you do, do. That's a general rule in how I live my life.
Mac DeMarco
I think people do expect something a little weird to happen. Maybe they've seen something I did once on the Internet and expect that I'm gonna do that every night.
Mac DeMarco
I didn't want to play music because the whole family did it. I wanted to work in a cubicle. I saw Office Space as a young tween and missed the point of the movie. I was like, This looks good!.
