I don't envy anybody trying to start a career right. There really is no music business left, in a lot of ways.

I think, to be happy is to be interested and engaged.

All that I need now is someone with the brains and the know-how to tell me what I want.

It's funny, because my last record was a lot about isolation and people living in separate worlds that other people can't even understand, which drug addiction is the perfect negative example of.

I'm really into boxing. I go to a gym and I'm friends with a trainer who's a pretty famous boxing trainer and I train with him.

You know what, the drummer is my manager. He's busy. And I'm busy. I don't need the dough, though. But having said that, there's a limit to how much bad music I wanna play. I did it when I was young, and some of the music was OK, but it wasn't great.

I don't believe in asking people to spend $15 on something they've never heard before. That's just unreasonable.
