My son, Wolfgang, plays drums, guitars and bass.

We're musicians. We make music for a living. It's that simple. Nothing else matters.

Nirvana was huge, but it didn't appeal to everyone.

Major third complications can be overcome by lots of alcohol.

I mean it's funny, playing music, how of course you want it to do well, you want them to like it, but it's not competitive like an election, it's the Olympics, it's not a Formula 1 race. The Billboard charts are just to show you what people like.

If I can help a kid discover a liking, or even a passion for music in their life, then that’s a wonderful thing.
