For me, the guitar synthesizer is a great writing instrument.

If I'm playing a violin thing, for instance, I tend to respond to that sound with the way I finger.

I am pretty embroiled in moving on and moving forward with music.

Usually, the best thing is when the band goes to the bar and gets the corner table, we sit there like kings, and then they bring people to us. It's just rock 'n' roll. It's stupid, really.

I don't go out much to see bands. I prefer to be on stage.

I admire photographers who can take much more ordinarily subject matter and make it transcend that ordinariness, so that it becomes something else fresh and new. It opens this doorway. I really admire people who can do that with photography.

I'm just trying to avoid any sort of generic kind of music - I don't want to do generic jazz or fusion.
