Music is the soundtrack to my life.

I was pretty quiet as a child. I kind of hung out with my family and listened to music and sh*t. I wasn't too outgoing at all.

Every band that I've known that has done side projects or things like that - I don't respect them anymore.

You want to hear vocals? Go sing it.

We'd record a song that people liked and wanted to hear on the radio, and the radio wouldn't play it because it was too long. Or they wanted to edit it, which we wouldn't allow.

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

As far as artists and musicians, they don't retire. They might tour less.
