I don't do much else but stay in my hotel room.

One of the first bands to break out of Seattle was Heart.

It's just writing about things, feelings, not that we're dark or depressed...just as much as anyone else is.

I'm not using drugs to get high like many people think. I know I made a big mistake when I started using this sh-. It's a very difficult thing to explain. My liver is not functioning and I'm throwing up all the time and shitting my pants. The pain is more than you can handle. It's the worst pain in the world. Dope sick hurts the entire body.

There's no huge, deep message in any of the songs. We recorded a few months of being human.

I don't take part in it the way I used to-the bimbos, the free beers, free drugs, all that. That's still there if you want it, but I don't really seek that out any more.

I haven't read anything but regurgitated rumors. Nothing new, and nothing true.
