The Misfits pretty much funds the Misfits. It used to cost me money to be in the band. I think we got paid the last gig we ever did. After that, we had to work to support our families.

I discovered the Clash, the Pistols, obviously the Ramones, Blondie.

There were some situations where I was giving up everything I had for the band and I just expected everybody else to feel the same way. I realized I was just kidding myself.

If you really want something you just hang with it. We think our future's ahead and not behind.

We have a problem now with parents stealing their kids' CDs, so the roles have been reversed.

Look at all the Misfits products that came out. We never made a dime off it.
