I walked away a little disheartened, thinking, 'Oh well. I came a long way to meet the Wizard of Oz, but I guess I won't. Such is life.

I wish there were more good new bands that would light a fire and offer a little friendly competition that would be welcomed.

I think people that have fear that, 'Oh if I have a kid I won't be able to do this and I won't be able to do that.' It's kind of the opposite. It really gives you energy. It makes people better.

The sad thing is, people don't want to believe that the person they're in love with is out of his mind, drinking and using, so if you give them even half an excuse, they're going to want to believe it.

Sometimes life's so much cooler when you just don't know any better and all the painful lessons have not hammered your head open yet.

A rock star does not age!

...whatever I ended up doing with my life,I wanted to people feel the way this music was making me feel.
