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

You want to hear vocals? Go sing it.

Metallica is the world to me - it always has been, and that's not going to change. I'm married to Metallica.

Every breath I take becomes deeper, and I become more confident of myself without my crutches. The lies I've filled my body and soul with aren't needed anymore. They're not welcome. I choose to live, not just exist.

It's good to listen to lots of different stuff, just whatever you like. The first two records I ever bought were Alice Cooper, Killer and Jethro Tull, Aqualung. That's two weird records to begin with, but I think they hold up well.

The band? No way! There ain't no band. The band is not 'the band' right now. It's just three guys.

I'd like to have a beer-holder on my guitar like they have on boats.
