Rock music is electronic music, dependent entirely on electronic circuitry and amplification.

Rock guitarists usually do not wish to think trains of thought about anything but their own guitar playing during a long solo, and I could not play this way if I were not able to divide my attention between my ever changing musical environment and my instrument itself.

Music is my friend, no matter where I go.

I find that the best way to do things is to constantly move forward and to never doubt anything and keep moving forward, if you make a mistake say you made a mistake.

Music has always carried me through times of loneliness. So when I make music, I like it to make people who listen to it feel like they have a friend who reveals something personal to them, rather than trying to be like a god up on a pedestal

I write lyrics. I play the guitar. If the rest of the band had to do my schedule, they would be dead

When the intellectual part of guitar playing overrides the spiritual, you don't get to extreme heights.
