Sonic Youth legend and Ecstatic Peace founder, Thurston Moore, first met Pitt while composing music for the Larry Clark movie, �Bully� but it was a reintroduction through researching a role for the movie, �Last Days� (van Sant�s impressionistic take on Kurt Cobain�s final hours) where the young songwriter and Moore connected musically. At Moore�s apartment, van Sant prodded Pitt to play for Moore. �All I had lying around the apartment was a crummy electric guitar Michael took it and began to belt out a solo rendition of �Lesson Learned� (the first track on the Pagoda CD.) I was taken aback.� [check out the song at the full story link] From that meeting sparked the journey for Moore and Pitt which culminates with the album, Pagoda.
