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.

I try to become a singer. The guitar has always been abused with distortion units and funny sorts of effects, but when you don't do that and just let the genuine sound come through, there's a whole magic there.
