DAVID FRICKE: (ROLLING STONE): Now that you have released your own album, do you wish you
could talk with your father about his experiences making music and
dealing with the music business?SEAN: Yeah, totally. [Pauses]
But that’s not the only thing. I wish I could do anything with him. Go
to a movie. Walk down the street. Watch TV with him let alone talk about
music.I think about my friend Harper Simon. His dad [Paul Simon]
is constantly showing him chords on the guitar. It’s nice. He’s lucky.
On another level, I think it’s made it hard for him, that his dad is
constantly over his shoulder musically. But that doesn’t mean that I
don’t wish my dad was around. Even if my dad had totally repressed me
and not allowed me to play music at all, I would take that over him
being gone.Rolling Stone June 11,1998
