All I really care about is that I'm being honest and I'm real and I'm coming from a real place.

I think part of what happens is that small labels want to get bigger. And bigger is not better.

I hate that sense of entitlement or the sense of business crawling into playing music.

I like to write about things that are dark or twisted. Where the poetry seems to be is when you start in the dark and reach for the light - that's what makes it not depressing to me.

Sometimes Queens' music is dark, but somehow it's ok to deliver it with a smile on your face because thing's are still going to kick in.

I think I learned years ago when I went to Hawaii that you don't bring puka shells back. You've got to be careful of your vacation purchases.

I'm not a militant, drug-taking freak! I'm sensitive.
