The thing about punk is that there are purists. Once you start going outside of that, they don't think what you're doing is punk rock.

A lot of punk rock is not going to be in the mainstream. It's below the radar. The beauty of it is that you're not supposed to always know. It's subterranean.

I have no idea where my career is going. I just make the best music that I possibly can.

I got body lice in Germany! I'd tell you they were crabs, but I wasn't getting laid.

I just wanted to get the hell out of my town. I wanted to leave with reckless abandon. I didn't care where I ended up, as long as I saw as much as humanly possible.

That was the hard part of having kids: trying to be on their schedule, then fighting to get to sleep while they are sleeping.

A man once asked me, what's punk? I kicked over a trash can and said that's punk. He kicked over a trash can and then asked me again, Is that punk? I replied no. That's just trendy.
