You know, when your poisoning your body night after night after night, you end up chipping a couple years off your life. I've always wanted to be able to do this and now that I am, it's hard to complain.

More quotes by Mac DeMarco
Neil Young is the prime example, the grand goal, if you will. He's still shredding, and he never lost his credibility.
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 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 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
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
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
With the old dog stuff, maybe the term old is in there, but I'm 26. I'm not that old. It's mostly like, Ah, you dirty old dog! I'm saying it more like that. I'm still ripping. I'm ready to rip. I'll make a bunch more records and have a nice time. We'll see what happens.
Mac DeMarco
I mean, Manhattan is cool. But weird parts, I like that. Jamaica, Queens, that's great.
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!.
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
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
When you're growing up, you just take what you've got.
Mac DeMarco
Usually when festivals are really huge it's kind of weird. It's totally fun for me and my band to play in front of a crowd that doesn't necessarily know who we are, but festivals get pretty impersonal when they get super large.
Mac DeMarco
Perfectionist? Thats not something I am.
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
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
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
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 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
Once a song comes out, these songs aren't mine. They're everybody's. So there you go.
