As long as there's something original going on, that's all that matters.

The Strat covers the complete spectrum of human emotion .. the tremolo enables you to do anything - you can hit any note known to mankind

I play purely from the heart, y'know, and so if it doesn't work the first couple of hours, forget it.

I play the way I do cause it allows me to come up w/ the sickest sounds possible. That's the point now isn't it?

I don’t care about the rules. In fact, if I don’t break the rules at least ten times in every song, then I’m not doing my job properly. Emotion is much more important than making mistakes, so be prepared to look like a chump. If you become too guarded and too processed, the music loses its spontaneity and gut feeling

That old funny-shaped bit of wood is still staring me in the face every day saying 'come on, you haven't started yet!' It's infinite.

Nowadays music is as disposable as a McDonald's wrapper.
