Tell us about Dog Eat Dog: Well…it’s about different things people are dealing with in the world. It gets inside that. And really goes there. Sometimes we all do, so we need that kind of information. Otherwise, why are we dealing with it? What is essential to infrastructure or is it just a big mess? It's CRAZY. So we dive deep into it. Magic? Maybe. Dance. Always.
