I'm a really friendly guy, I guess, and I really like meeting people.

I used to be a lot more engaged on an improvisational level than other people. I was always on tour and always had a guitar in my hands, and when I went back home, my battery was at full charge. I had a lot of energy to get off, just impulses that I could draw upon.

I want to build an audience that's willing to follow us in whichever direction we might choose.

I think the younger kids need to realize there's this whole forgotten 90s that people don't really talk about.

We all come back to our little worlds.

We didn't have MTV, and I was desperate for something. You know, you're young, you want something off the beaten path. And Twin Peaks was like, surrealism on network TV.

When young groups put out albums, they're always forced to go through this cycle of touring and talking and flaunting and posturing and peacocking. Nobody makes me do that anymore.
