You're about to walk on stage and play together for the next few hours so you want to feel connected and make sure that everyone is in the same head space; a good head space.

I have a lot of guitars. Yeah, I'm not like a guitar collector, I don't have all vintage instruments. I don't even own a Strat or Les Paul. I don't have one.

I've always said that there's a huge progressive rock, progressive metal audience out there, in the world.

Dark master of sin, now my soul is yours.

It's probably no coincidence with the internet and social media and the word being able to spread beyond the radio, where fans can go and talk and congregate and trade stories and a band could communicate news very quickly and in a worldwide basis. I'm sure that's helped in bringing in this case us to more of the forefront of peoples attention.

I went straight out of high school, and when I was 17, all I wanted to do was play guitar.

It's hard to answer that from my own perspective because when I'm playing I know where it is coming from and the sources.
