If somebody thinks wearing pretty dresses onstage somehow discredits us that's pretty absurd.

Billboard called my solo album, 'Standing In The Spotlight,' a great party album and even said that my raps put the Beastie Boys to shame.

I'm really lucky I'm still around. Everybody expected me to die next... But it was always someone else instead of me.

I couldn't do rap. I was trying. I don't know how. I'm not good enough to know.

I like the guitar better these days. I like the bass, too, but it's hard to fit a bass amp in a small car.

There's a side to being in a band that some people embrace and some don't: the fact that you're performing and you care about how it comes across.

Progression is important. I'm always going to play music in the general vein of rock'n'roll, but when I started I was very much associated with the West Coast lo-fi thing and I didn't want to get anchored in with anything that was just in vogue for the time being.
