Anytime I switch to another instrument, I immediately turn it into another kind of drum so that I can understand it better.

Drums just always sounded like the most fun part of that good music for me.

I don't fool with a lot of things that I can't have fun with. There's not much reward in that.

I like to get within handshaking distance of the crowd. If it happens, they know it, we know it, and that's all we came here for.

I don't hear record companies coming up with any good ideas or suggestions. Historically, if it ain't their idea, it ain't no good, so you got that to contend with.

I've had all the lessons I could get. I've learned from everybody I've ever met.

Lord, when the song wants to pick up and go a little faster towards the end, it's hard for me to resist.
