It's fun when you are on tour to go a place you are familiar with in any given city. It's like being home away from home.

Best Buy. I heard recently they are downsizing and I got sad! I remember when Circuit City was around, I never understood why people would shop there. I always thought Best Buy had a better selection and cheaper prices.

The worst thing about touring is the travel.

I have tons of friends in the heavy-metal music world, and just going to see them inspires me.

I write when I have to; I write when the song is done and I deal with the idea and I just go with it and I'll become what that song is all about until I have finished it. And when you do that, it makes the song more visual, it makes it more personal.

I play loud onstage for my own benefit as I like. But I'm not too fond of the P.A. either.

I'm always using a towel around my head. Airports don't worry about me.
