Your woman pisses you off so that gets in there; that's rock n roll.

It was fun while it lasted, but it never seemed real to me. I could not believe I was in Van Halen.

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.

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.

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

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

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