Jimi was a good guy 'til he got into drugs. That's the way it is. I just tell it like it is.

I became stereotyped.

I can play every instrument there is, every horn, I've played all the saxes and trumpets and everything and keyboards.

I always felt people should live with animals.

I used to be a mean maniac. Someone once threw a firecracker at a show and I jumped off the side of the stage and whacked 'em on the side of the head.

I'll never die. I'll just explode, right there before your eyes, onstage.

When I start playing I'm just a rollercoaster of sound. I don't know what's coming next, I never do, and I sit and sign and talk to the people afterwards.
