We have a storage close by where I live, that's very organised. My guitar tech, Matty organised it all, labeled everything.

Jordan Ruddes does [have a home studio], but it's all self-contained. I'll be the only guy with a fully built recording studio. So they'll have to come to me.

I'm a hopeless tone chaser!I love it and get into the whole thing.

I don't have very eclectic tastes in music.

I started playing guitar when I was 12, and I started getting into more metal, like Maiden and Metallica... Of course, as I kind of got better and better in the guitar, I was listening to more guitar players, so then I got into, I guess, more of the prog side.

I almost rely on other people to say, "Hey, you ever hear of this band?" And I'll say, "Oh, I've never heard of that!" And I listened to them and thought, "What the hell?"

I'm realizing this more and more that it's one thing to get involved with your own political beliefs and stand behind you believe in personally.
