There are people hell-bent on the idea that we're a Christian band in disguise, and that we have some secret message. We have no spiritual affiliation with this music. It's simply about life experience.

I'm not ashamed of my spiritual beliefs, but I in no way incorporate them into this band.

People told me I can't dress like a fairy. I say, I'm in a rock band and I cand do whatever the hell I want!

A fan once asked if he could have a piece of my hair for voodoo. I said no, so he hugged me and plucked out a couple of hairs and ran off.

Every time a cool rock chick or actress seems to respect themselves as a strong woman, I'm like, 'Yeah!' And I love them, and they're my girls. And then they start to go downhill and people aren't paying attention anymore. So they start stripping their clothes off, because that's all they have left. I swear to everything I've ever known, I will never do that

Too bad you can't quote the look on my face.

I'm singing from my heart now more than ever. I've gotten a lot braver with my writing.
