I'm not going to conform to some consumer need.

I sort of enjoy the fact that I'm misunderstood most of the time. That's fine.

There's an honesty in our family - my kids and I are able to talk about things without me putting the fear of God into them.

My wife is the CEO of the family. I'm the fun guy, just trying to make it up as I go along.

A punk concert isn't fun without a pit.

There were a couple of times, leading up to shooting [Ordinary World], where I was like, "Oh, my god, what did I get myself into? Hopefully, I don't ruin this guy's precious script." And then, after a couple of days of shooting, I started getting in the groove of it and it was really fun. I love being a rookie at stuff. It makes it feel vital. I love doing things I've never done before, and I love making stuff.

I don't want to limit myself musically. It would be really limiting if we'd neglect something we really want to do, like explore other styles of music.
