When my dad toured in '91, I think my first gig properly was the Tokyo Dome, 50,000 people indoors. That was pretty scary. I was 12, or 13.

My dad used to say to me, 'You look more like me than I do.'

It was a relief to be able to do my own band, because I was very responsible for all this amazing music I didn't want to mess up before.

I did everything I could to not be a musician.

Being in L.A. is great because there are so many weird people out there, so you can just blend in. I like that.

Websites are kind of useless. There's so much great web content and design out there, but the ways in which they are being experienced are not being maximized.

I've grown up around cinema. Michael Kamen was a very, very close friend of mine, sort of my godfather. So I know how much work goes into it. You have to know what you're doing.
