get with me, lay with me, love with me

Tom Shear of Assemblage 23 on Side-Line: “The Mesh cover [of A23’s ‘Document’] came out of my meeting the Mesh guys in the hotel bar when we were both playing WGT. We hit it off right away and had a good time having a few beers and some excellent conversation together. A couple months after this, Mark emailed me the first version of his cover of the song he did for the hell of it (which is a quite a bit different from the released version). Believe it or not, music can sometimes be created out of friendship and fun, and not just ego and status. Not mine, though. I just do it for all the money, drugs, and sweet, emotionally damaged gothic pussy.”
