We like to set off bombs.

A lot of modern amps and preamps sound great when you're jamming by yourself, but don't hold up in a band situation. The sound isn't dense enough, and the lows and highs tend to get soaked up by the bass and cymbals.

Dying, dying, someone told me just recently, dying is easy. Living is hard. For everyone.

Live win, dare fail.

Most of my guitars have been instruments that look cool. I'm not picky. I never think, 'Oh, this neck isn't made of ebony,' or, 'These strings don't feel correct.' It doesn't matter too much.

One time we saw some hookers but when we got closer we realized it was Motley Crue.

I associate times with certain music. It still is that for me. It's telling the story of our lives.
