If I was a politician right now I would change just about everything.

I don't avoid confrontation, people should know that.

In the last couple of years I've been facing down a lot of the demons of the past and trying to find out, who I am, It's something I think I'll be doing for the rest of my life.

Hard rock may have faded from the media for a time, but I've always been able to make a living, if not in America, then in the rest of the world.

I've never been uncomfortable putting my heart on display, my feelings on display, certainly with an audience.

I've always thought live albums were cop-outs.

Whitesnake more than most rock bands would get a very significant percentage of women in the audience and those were the ones I'd hear the voices because from where I am on stage is a pretty good spot.
