Don't call Ryan Adams Ryan Adams. That is if you're referencing his work with the Cardinals. In an interview with Spinner after the band's performance for AOL Sessions, Adams lamented that the group's previous albums, including the most recent, 'Cardinology,' says "Ryan Adams and the Cardinals" because of the record label.

"People really don't understand [that] I'm just in the band," he tells Spinner. "I don't do s---, I don't run anything. They're just using my name because somebody thinks I had some level of success, which is such f---ing total bulls---. No one knows who the f--- I am. That's why they go, 'Bryan Adams?'"

"I just want to be in the band that I'm in," he continues. "I just want to go home and be alone for the rest of my f---ing life and die under a big stack of comics, and let roaches eat my f---ing eyes out of my skull because that's how it is. But it's cool."

Insert awkward silence here.
