Basically I'm always singing about the same stuff whether it's in a loud or quiet outfit.

I have been a provoker and I'll probably always be one in the public arena for the rest of my life.

There's just so little mystery left in music or film. It was all that was magical to me as a child.

When you get a chance to play with people - informally is one thing, but when you hook up and make something that's going to last or mean something to someone, I take it very seriously.

I've always been a fan of album covers with no writing on them and have used them a lot in my own groups.

The absence of a bass player always makes things go faster and hit harder in the high-end range.

Anything lower than mid-six figures is not going to get me interested in that. And honestly, I just don't want to.
