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

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

I sing in a higher register, and you haven't heard that on the radio in years.

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

When I was in Van Halen I was hitting notes that were out of my range. I never went for those registers before until Eddie pulled it out of me.

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

I am a big Pink Floyd fan. That is where a lot of the concept lyrics come from.
