The PV Q&A with Maynard James Keenan by Andrew Youssef

You know him as the frontman of Tool, A Perfect Circle and Puscifer. In typical Maynard fashion, he has a lot going on right now. A Perfect Circle just issued an expansive live box set (Live: Featuring Stone and Echo) and a greatest hits collection (Three Sixty), Puscifer have a new mockumentary/concert film out this week (What Is...), and Tool are in the midst of finally writing material for their next album. Let's not forget, Maynard is also the proprietor of Caduceus Cellars and Merkin Vineyards, a winery based in Jerome, Arizona. Humans of New York. The Smashing Pumpkins. I figure out that if you put fresh pans of water in the corners at night, the roaches will climb in for some unknown reason and drown themselves...so each morning, I go around to the 4 corners of the 600 sq. ft. space and "collect" last night’s victims and dump them all in the toilet...the storefront has no shower, so I wash in the sink, using paper towels to dry myself off...

(eventually, I will tire of this routine as well, and stop washing all together-my face being the only exception...VANITY!! I meet a bona fide "model", a 17-year old who has been on the catwalks of Milan and Paris...she drives a fancy French car (a Peugeot, mon ami) and has money...she also is a photographer, and takes some of the earliest "art" type photos of me... hello mr/mrs _____, how are you today? My name is ____, and I am a disabled American working for a living...you can appreciate that, can’t you mr/mrs ____ that rather than sponge off the government, I am a hard working citizen?
