Michael Anthony is the Diplomat of Rock N Roll. He is the regular guy.

I have had success throughout the years. Some of the hard rock bands today don't have the history that I have.

My favorite Extreme records were the last two. I can't listen to the first one.

If I had had a chance to tour with Van Halen before the record, I think it would have been a different record.

I was growing up listening to Queen. Freddie Mercury threw those incredible melodies into his songs.

I think there are some good players coming up. I think we are at a point where people can swallow a guitar solo in a pop rock record again.

In my writing with Extreme, there are heavy themes. The cover photo has me with a gun to my neck. I am not advocating suicide. I am taking the philosophy that man is the measure of his own fate.
