I'm lucky the arthritis happened at the time that it did because of the record.
When we first began and I was 14, my influences were the stuff that was in my parent's record collection like Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin.
It makes it hard to get over a certain period of your life when you are constantly revisiting it every night.
I never really paid attention to sales until the second record.
So I went and visited a doctor and he diagnosed me with reactive arthritis.
I have never had a social life, don't ever want one because it's boring. I'm just not very good with people, and you meet people every night who expect you to be this rock star with these developed social skills, which I don't have.
