If it doesn't come from your heart, music just doesn't work.

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

My parents wanted me to be smart and be a scholar, and the best I could do was graduate high school.

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

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

The Jungle Bush Beaters didn't last too long as a group, but we had a pretty good time while we did.

Dad and mom would have preferred that I be a doctor, a lawyer, a scientist, or a great humanitarian.
