I had this idea... I wanted the sound to sing and have that thickness but yet still have an edge so that it could articulate. So my dad and I designed the guitar... the one that was made from an old fireplace.

I think Hammer's very cool: he has a great voice and great presence.

I don't surf the net in general. I have someone do it for me instead, because I find it sluggish.

Sometimes if the guitar is the last thing to go on, it's very fresh.

I think Queen tribute bands are great. However, we have to keep them at arm's length, otherwise it could be too dangerous.

I have to build my own boat this time. It's a big sea out there, and I have a pretty small boat. I have a lot of belief in it.

On the first few albums the songs would grow into strange shapes.
