Tegan & Sara

continued from previous page

walking over and knocking on _my
door and me ignoring her and her
leaving a package on my doorstep,
she would send it to me and I’d
pick it up at the post office. We are
really two different songwriters and
we eventually come together in
pre-production, where we really try
to fill in the gaps with that Tegan
and Sara glue, trying to make
something cohesive. From a per-
sonal standpoint, living in different
places was a statement of where we
were at ~ Tegan was very much
rooted in Vancouver and had her

whole thing set up there; I was
much more transitional, trying to
step out on my own. I think that
there is a bit of a concept on this
record about being insecure and
jealous and transitional.

DJ Llu: Favorite tracks off the new
record?

Sara: To sing live, I really like
“So Jealous” and “You Wouldn’t
Like Me.”

Lluvla: Nov. 2nd_is coming up

what sort of inspiration, advice, or
rant to have to say to [Americans]
about the election?

Sara: It’s an incredible opportuni-
ty to get out and actually do some-

the wholeprocess, to go down
there on your bike or in your car

and find your name on the list, and ._

get the ballot  You count! You
are on a list. When you are there,
that’s when you actually feel like
you are making a difference. Every
time I vote, I get an adrenaline
rush. You want to tell people.

Tegan: If you think your vote
doesn’t_ count, there are millions of

people who think that,_too. What if
all of you got up and made a
choice, think about the difference
you could make. Being complacent
about who runs your country is like
saying that you don’t care about
your life. There are people around
the world who would do anything
to live with a fraction of the free-
doms we have, and I don’t mean
television andnarne brands and fast
food  I mean things we take for
granted, like being able to get up in
the morning and take a shower. ,
Voting is one of our biggest free-
doms, because it allows us to live
the way we do. And I think it’s ter-

Sara: Well that’s not very posi- "
tive. .. .

Tegan: (sarcastically) Idiotsl...
That went downhill fast! (Laughter)
