My vocal ability is very limited, but I'm fortunate in that I can write the songs around my vocal limitations.

I write a lot of stuff, and some of it I don't even present to Judas Priest. But having said that, my first love is to play Judas Priest music.

Shortly after that, we got management problems over in England, and Judas Priest asked me to join.

I think we all appreciate it now just how lucky we are to be in a band like Judas Priest.

I never took a lesson until I was 20, and I'm glad I had those years living the life of a normal person. I don't consider that time wasted.

A lot of bands that reunite do it for the wrong reasons. They do it for the bucks and everybody can sense it.

There are a lot better musicians than me out there that just haven't had the luck to fall into everything like I have.
