To go see a band in a big venue is a difficult experience. I don't really like that too much. I'm not a guy who puts on iTunes and goes, "Oh, what's hot!" I don't need to.

I like to play with someone who can cover a lot of ground and someone with whom you can discuss the language at a reasonable level; otherwise it gets a bit frustrating.

I actually think I play better now than Ive ever played.

In The Police, in a trio situation - which I've come back to now - it's just so wide open that it does actually provide this arena where you can play with a certain freedom.

I don't like playing standards. I like to do my own cutting edge work.

It is not very practical in today’s world when you tour all over the place having a big band.

It's exciting to see if you can create something that sounds, at least to your own ears, exciting.
