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

You just never know when somebodys gonna die. It could happen at any moment so youve got to really treat everybody that way. Just really let everybody know how you feel about them.

Music is energy, and energy is the single most important form of it in the world. Without energy, there is no life. The only difference between a dead person and a live person is the energy, the electricity flowing inside their system, and that's what makes music.

The main thing experience has taught me is that one has to sort of hone their relationship to time, you know.

Mainly, I don't like it when music is made solely to impress people or in order to please business people; it doesn't sound good to me.
