There was so much good and different music back then and you'd just keep moving through it and discovering more new stuff. I went through my Black Sabbath phase before I even started playing guitar.

Trios aren't really geared for slide unless you're gonna play chords, or play that simple George Thorogood style. It gets pretty thin when you play single note lines.

When people start copying your style, you know that something must be happening.

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

I choose to live, not just exist.

People always complain about something. If you face yourself and stand up strong, you're OK. You can't go wrong.

Nothing's really a prized possession except my family, you know?
