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

I wanted to make noise, not study theory.

I've discovered that sheer quantity doesn't necessarily make for a heavier sound; if anything, overdubs make guitars sound mushier.

No one but me can save myself though its too late, death greets me warm, now i will just say goodbye.

Music was the voice I didn't have.

Aqualung is one that my brother turned me onto. It wasn't that hard-rocking, but Martin Barre had a really good sound. He knew what he was doing.

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