I love a lot of reggae, but Ive never had the opportunity to play with any reggae guys.

Be honest with yourself and the way you act when you hear music. That way, when people watch, they'll see something from your heart and soul, and as a result will communicate your feeling and thought much better.

It was also important for me to have a burning desire to achieve something worthwhile on that instrument, and I devoted many many many hours with little or no compensation to perfecting whatever I could, because I loved it so much.

I listened to many different types of instruments and music, and have always tried to look at the bass as an instrument as opposed to only a bass.

I didn't follow the standard rules of bass playing, and many musicians on many different instruments who became noteworthy for their unique or particular style did a very similar thing.

I'm a fan of many different styles of classical and symphonic music.

I try to do my absolute best for the people who come see me play.
