Cuong Vu: More Power in a Collective
CV: Basically, try to get the record out there. Hopefully, more interviews and reviews will come, and I'm trying to set up as many tours as I can. And if I have time, hopefully I can just spend fifteen minutes a day writing, and come up with some nuggets that I can then work on later. Just try to get better at writing. I don't want to go another four years without doing a record. But I also don't want to do a record if I don't have anything to say. It just comes down to working on it.
