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.

We weren't One Hit Wonders. We had a few hits.

I tried to stick with what I knew best, which is writing rock n' roll songs and melodies. I am as passionate as I was when I was 20.

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

If people get to the end of the record, then that is a treat.

Whether I sound like Sammy or not is purely coincidence. You have got to hand it to him, he sings his ass off. There is no moss on that stone.

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