I love to listen to the music that first inspired me - I get that fresh feeling back.

I don't see anyone avoiding the Stones because DJs make jokes about them being a part of the Geritol set. All it does is make the DJs look stupid.

When I plug in my guitar and play it really loud, loud enough to deafen most people, that's my shot of adrenaline, and there's nothing like it. That's what it's always been for me - to be the flame the tribe dances around.

I think that... the age of just slapping songs into movies, that's done.

You don't throw clothes away, because you know it's going to come back in fashion!

You can always pound out demos and send them to record companies, but most of the successful bands I've seen are the ones that can sustain themselves.

Over the years, when you're in a band with a catalog like Aerosmith's, you accumulate a lot of instruments to duplicate those songs.
