At heart I cannot accept that I am a well-known rock 'n' roll star and one of the greatest drummers in the world.

I don’t think the drums are a solo instrument. Drums are there to set the beat for the music.

I've always enjoyed myself. Unhappy periods for me last about twenty minutes.

I told people I was a drummer before I even had a set, I was a mental drummer.

To get your playing more forceful, hit the drums harder.

I love to see people laugh and I love it more if I can make them laugh.

Give me a mandolin and I'll play you rock 'n' roll.
