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

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

Dave thought he was bigger than Van Halen the band. So there was this catfight going on for 10 years.

You can tell the difference between songs that were created in a garage and songs that were created in the studio.

You have Extreme and Van Halen and the history that I have with other people I played with. There are some effects that will hopefully break that stereotype.

I don't know if I have enough guts to do a whole standard jazz record.

The voices on the record, that was trying to treat my voice like guitar players treat guitar tones.
