You know why Foo Fighters have been a band for 20 years? Because I've never really told anybody what I think of them. The last thing you ever want to do is go to therapy with your band.

Usually, when Nirvana made music, there wasn't a lot of conversation. We wanted everything to be surreal. We didn't want to have some contrived composition.

Chicago gave me more music than any other city in America.

When I listen to the radio, I just hear so much music that doesn't even sound like people. The vocals are all tuned, and the drums are all fake.

I listen to boy band music before I have to fire someone.

When there's so much left to do, why spend your time focusing on things you've already done, counting trophies or telling stories about the good old days?

It was supposed to be gross, and now it's gorgeous.
