{{Pat Wilson quote|
{{Interviewer|Jon|So let's talk briefly about your side project. The band's called [[The Special Goodness|Special Goodness]]?}}
{{Pat|Yes, The Special Goodness. That will probably be the name of the album and it will be out on [[Geffen Records]].}}
{{Interviewer|Jon|And how did the recording go?}}
{{Pat|I recorded all the instruments myself, but I had help in producing it from my friend [[Tony Lash]] and he's a very thorough engineer. We took a lot of time in order to assure a really smooth sound.}}
{{Interviewer|Jon|How did the writing go?}}
{{Pat|I did the writing myself, but a lot of the songs were only half done arrangement wise, and he [Tony] helped me a lot with the arrangements, because at that time the whole thing was getting really incestuous with myself. I was just too close and I couldn't see what needed to be done.}}
{{Interviewer|Jon|Why did you opt for the single chemistry as opposed to a band chemistry?}}
{{Pat|Because dealing with people can be a big nightmare. Not only that, but I just felt like I had these personalities on the drums and guitar and bass, why not see if they made a nice band?}}
