I'm an atheist, and I don't have any belief in an afterlife.

I don't even think whether I play the blues or not, I just play whatever feels right at the moment. I also will use any gadget or device that I find that helps me achieve the sort of sound on the guitar that I want to get.

There is irreducible chance in the universe.

Personally, I'm not very keen on the visualization of absolutely everything.

If people would like to come to my concerts I'd love them to come. And if they like the music that I make, I love that too. But I do not make music for other people. I make it to please myself.

I just play intuitively and work the same way in the studio. I don't have any magical effects or anything that helps me to get my particular sound.

Being a solo artist is what I do. It's what I've been doing for the last 20 years and a bit before then.
