I was playing in bands before high school even. My first band I was in at 14. And we were playing just Beatles.

It's only an interim trip. I love the music, but it's really giving me a way in which I can comfortably explore my art.

I choose to express myself.

You're successful if you can get one person to pick it up and put it on the turntable and go, Wow, thanks for writing that!

The outlet for my sorrow, that I do feel deeply, and the pain, is the songs. That's where it goes.

Now is the only thing that exists.

I had never done TV. I think it's a foolish medium for, most rock 'n roll music. Nobody ever comes off well on TV.
