Forgiveness is hard for me, man. It is for most American-Western males. It's a sign of weakness.

I just wanna be a rock star!

Any artist manages his own business along with his manager. Every band should.

My favorite drive is Highway 101 in California between Los Angeles and San Luis Obispo. I love the 101; Highway 1 is too windy, and 5 is too boring - the 101 is just right. It's like the Mama Bear of scenic drives.

My goal is to make my kids as happy as possible.

I loved hard-rock bands, and I loved songwriters who told stories.

You dont have control of the car, but you can drive it. Life takes you where it wants you to go and where you need to go.
