Michael Gira: "I don't know how Kim and Thurston did it for so long"
Quote:
Don't tour with your spouse.
Jarboe and I were both very intemperate personalities. I don't know how we survived together so long — no criticism of her at all — but there was just utterly insane behavior on both our parts. I can't give an example without embarrassing myself and her, but there were some bottles thrown across the room — I won't say by whom — but in the presence of some major journalists. You just get so exhausted and then you drive after the show. It's insane to do it. I don't know how Kim and Thurston did it for so long. They're much more levelheaded people I'm sure. I was really pleased Jarboe was willing to make a guest appearance on the new album. She has a lot of soul in her voice. I could never envision Jarboe back in the band, though. I love her tremendously but it would be a potential nightmare.

From August, but I don't think it has been posted/mentioned here.
