I'm still amazed by the process of recording.

It's mostly Mars Bars and peanuts and cheese and you go to the fridge and there's Red Bull and Beer. It's not like people are holding me down and pouring beer in my face.

Most of America don't even listen to music probably. They just go raccoon hunting or something.

I think a lot of cynicism has dropped away from my shoulders since I stopped drinking.

Being a singer now I have to get all fussy... I must have my ginger and lemon and all that.

There are a lot of people who can do it on the guitar and sing at the same time, but I think what is harder is bass players that can play the bass and sing.

There were some extremely good teachers there that were great artists really in their own right. It was actually very hard to concentrate on getting down to going any work being an art student especially when it's a flighty thing at best.
