Too many people chase dreams that they don't understand. Too many people try to go for things that they'd like to do, but they're not realistic enough to know they don't have the talent.

Corey TaylorThe first time I can remember being on a stage in front of an audience was one that came with triumph, adrenaline and a childlike tragedy.

And I think once you're a fan for life, you feed each other's sense of passion and rage and whatnot. You really can't have one without the other.
