I listen to Bill Stewart play the drums and when I have finished doing that, I listen to Bill Stewart.

And we'd drink huge amounts of scotch and coke, which is a ghastly sweet drink... And now people don't drink nearly as much, for good reason. We're all a little wiser.

I seldom play in a trio, but acoustic music is likely to be lighter, quicker, and quieter.

I don't really remember a whole lot of sex, drugs and rock n' roll, really.

Plus I am being hounded by all the fabulous new drummers, Bill Stewart at the head of the pack.

Drummers haven't managed to develop their individuality quite as well as guitarists have. We can be so focused on the nuts and bolts that we overlook the importance of individuality - the broader picture, if you will.

We used to drink an awful lot of alcohol.
