Music allows the great opportunity to play with people you love.

The music we're playing now is based on my heritage, which is Russian, Romanian and Hungarian.

My father's father came from Russia; my mother came from Romania.

Being selfish to me means that you have to look out for yourself and you don't have to sacrifice.

Being stubborn has helped, being selfish is not a bad thing.

Why do you have to retire at 65? Why can't you start at 70? You know, like wine. Why can't music be that way? My new band, we're playing stuff that's never been done before.

If you want to play somebody's music, you'd better go into his house.
