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.

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

Most of our stuff was trial and error. You live with a tape recorder, you turn it on, you play the song and you listen to it.

Forever Young, by Dylan, is one of my favorite songs.

I never subscribe to the stay-at-home policy. I'm not sick of the road or sick of eating in good restaurants around the country. I like to travel.

I was in high school, trying to get out of high school. The only thing slowing me up was grades.

I played some Yamaha drums that I like a lot. And I like the Yamaha people a lot too. They've been really nice to me and The Band.
