I'm not trying to hide from my past. I want to roll in it. Like a dog, rolling in feces, I'm rolling in the feces of my greatest hits - that's a bit of a wild way of looking at it, but I am a man, and we do like rolling in our own feces at times.

My dad was one of the reasons I got into rock and roll, because I was learning the ropes of his business, which was selling powertools, and I was looking for a way out from under his heel. I was like, 'Where's the fun? Where's the glamour?

I'm really a singer, so I love songs and I love singing. I like rap music, but I didn't grow up freestyling.

Part of the punk attitude was that you should project your music through your whole body... show your personality as much as possible.

Rock isn't art, it's the way ordinary people talk.

When the other man has none, you don't need a gun.

If I only had the chance, I'd ask one to dance, and I'd be dancing with myself.
