Being worshipped is a horrible experience.

The other thing in composition is opening up the unconscious.

I had a big background in listening to classical music and I started trying to compose, like I was playing the guitar but I heard an orchestra in my head.

So I learnt a few country western songs, I bought a chord book, and right away I started writing my own stuff, which nobody else did that, I don't know why.

When I play, I very quickly put myself into a light hypnotic trance and compose while playing, drawing directly from the emotions.

But I say these things in an objective dispassionate manner because, you know, and I can't explain why, but being one of the greatest guitarists in the world simply is not very important to me.

From a social perspective, I am looking for friends, not acolytes.
