Punk has always been about doing things your own way. What it represents for me is ultimate freedom and a sense of individuality.

We are not afraid to be entertainers.

No matter what, if you're a parent, you have to make sacrifices.

One thing I want to teach my son is sensitivity to other people. I want to teach him not to be this macho freak.

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 think people are born bisexual, and it's just that our parents and society kind of veer us off into this feeling of 'Oh, I can't'. They say it's taboo. It's ingrained in our heads that it's bad, when it's not bad at all. It's a very beautiful thing.

You can't live on planet rock star 24/7; you have to be down and dirty and have some fun.
