Some of the greatest guitarists, historically, have had no chops, they've just had great taste. I know a lot of musical school kids who just have no taste.

I don't like when things don't match. I love some Eighties fashion, like Grace Jones but primary colours only work in certain situations.

You have to be kind of sensitive to be in rock and roll.

My theory is that the only people who hate hipsters are hipsters. Where I come from my friends and family don't even know what they are. The only people that talk about hipsters are hipsters.

When it comes to touch and feel as a musician, style is infinitely more important than chops.

Whatever the medium, if you have great taste and not very much skill, you can still make something great.

I don't think men should think too much about their hair. They shouldn't think. They should just open bottles for women, hammer nails into wall and chop wood.
