"It's one of the very few songs I wrote for a girl. I just moved in with my girlfriend in New York. We had a neighbour: an old woman who was always dressed in purple head to toe. She was clearly bonkers. So whenever my girlfriend and I had an argument and she would start screaming at me, I would say: you might as well start wearing purple now."

I saw them live in Nashville one time. I think they were on-stage for a total of 1 minute for the entire 45min show. At one point, the guitarist is up on the bar stomping on the kick drum playing a tune, while the actual drummer is laying on the floor in his undies getting a full trash can dumped on him by the frontman. Meanwhile, bassist comes out of nowhere from a balcony on top of the guitarist.

One of the best shows I've ever been to.

That sure sounds like an awesome time, I am (benevolently) envious! Monotonix kept me sane throughout my second and third years of working a corporate job...
