When you are young, there is so much ahead of you, it's like the Saharan desert. You can't even see across it.

I listen to blues music a lot and that's a good person feeling bad and celebrating that pain by releasing it in that kind of joyous fashion.

I'm most comfortable on stage.

I was very lucky to have had the opportunity to tour with the Beastie Boys and watched almost every set they played on all those dates. Why not? You do your set and then you get to see the Beasties play? Best deal in town.

In my world there would be as many public libraries as there are Starbucks.

I've never killed anybody... but I've definitely thought about it.

Life is weird, great and dangerous.
