A lot of kids bought guitars and started playing rock'n'roll because of us.

You also get so wound up playing a show that a lot of people need something to bring them down. People who don't know how to handle the situation take drugs. I didn't. I went back to my room with milk and cookies.

Two of my biggest heroes were my father and John Wayne.

I never felt out of control. It was just the way I lived my life. I was the neighborhood bully.

I was the one who was always scowling, downcast. I tried to make sure I looked like that when I was getting my picture taken.

If a man can tell if he's been successful in his life by having great friends, then I have been very successful.

You can't change music by yourself.
