From 1998 Guitar World article:
GW: But why does Pilate have a dog.
Ament:...Have you ever read the THE MASTER AND MARGARITA [by Mikhail
Bulgakov]? I just read that book, and at the end they talk about
Pontius Pilate being all alone on a mountain with his dog. He couldn't
sleep and he couldn't function. It really struck me hard, because at
that point I was feeling very alone. I've always had this recurring
dream about being old and just me and my dog sitting on the porch. It
wasn't necessarily a sad dream or a premonition, but it did get me to
thinking about why Pilate was so alone and freaked out. Then I realized
he didn't get to finish his conversation with Jesus, that's why he can't
function, because he didn't tie up the loose ends in his life.
From: Guitar World "All For One"
by Vic Garbarini
March, 1998
GW: Your songs on Yield seem too reflect that process. "Pilate" is all
frenzied frustration, while "Low Light" is like a hymn, serene and at peace.
But why does Pilate have a dog?
JA: I think "Pilate" was the question I was asking myself, and "Low Light"
was the answer, the realization. Have you ever read The Master and Margarita
[by Mikhail Bulgakov]? I just read that book, and at the end they talk about
Pontius Pilate being all alone on a mountain with his dog. He couldn't sleep
and he couldn't function. It really struck me hard, because at that point I
was feeling very alone. I've always had this recurring dream about
being old and just me and my dog sitting on the porch. It wasn't necessarily
a sad dream of a premonition, but it it did get me to thinking about why
Pilate was so alone and freaked out. Then I realized he didn't get to finish
his conversation with Jesus- *that's* why he can't function, because he
didn't tie up the loose ends in his life. Later, I was playing the guitar,
and I was hit so hard by this amazing emotion. In that moment the words "low
light" came out, and somehow those were the only words to explain what I was
feeling. It was a kind of greatfulness at finding that place of calm and
peace at my center and getting a glimpse of the person I could choose to be.
It was the purest happiness that I've experienced in a long time, that
particular emotion. God, I thought I was going to explode. I feel very
lucky to have been able to put it down on tape that morning and work through
it until it became a song.
