Rodriguez: An Interview
Rob Hughes, unpublished, Fall 2009
"DID I HAVE DREAMS of being a big star? Yeah, I had hopes of making it. We all do, but in music there are no guarantees. If people aren't showing at the gigs, it's difficult and all very real. It was a case of Hey man, I can't get something happenin'. I think a lot of us get disappointed like that."
