I've been a huge fan of Shepard Fairey since like '98 or '99
Ah, when I moved to New York, the next dorm room over for mine
Had the André the Giant has a Passy, you know seven foot two
You know the original kind of sticker
And I-ah, it was just like that was so on my wave length
I just saw that and I said oh my God that's the best thing I have ever seen
I got to know who's doing this, and then I would notice the kind of
He would put André eyes around the city like you know
Late '90s they were all over obey
Am and so I did research and I found out he was
And read his manifesto that was on his website back then
And I was just a big a bit fan, then Interpol played Coachella
Our first time, and after the show this guy came out to me
And said you know "Hey am big fan my name is Shepard"
And I was like you're not the Shepard Fairey, are you?
And-ah, we just really hit off, so his been kind of
In the Interpol camp from day one
As just like a fan and a friend of you know of all of us
Ah, so I mean that's-that's how it started for me, it's just as a fan
