I play a percussion instrument, not a musical saw; it needs no amplification. Where it's needed, they put a microphone in front of the bass drum. But, I don't think it's necessary to play that way every night.

There were so many individual styles thirty or forty years ago.

I can't sit down long enough to absorb any kind of learning.

If you think you stink, you probably do.

I never believed in a set routine. It should depend on how you feel, because you play what you feel.

There are only two types of music.good and bad.

Every drummer that had a name, had a name because of his individual playing. He didn't sound like anybody else, So everybody that I ever listened to, in some form, influenced my taste.
