I lead two totally separate lives. There are times when I have to slip into rock star mode.

I think being in a band is probably the only job when you're actively encouraged to be out of it most of the time.

I don't like to think 10 years down the road.

I didn't expect us to be around after 25 years.

I live in Santa Barbara. My wife's American, and she lived in England for 11 years and then told me she'd had enough.

Once I'd chosen the songs, it seemed like it would just be a question then of recording them. But it's a case of trying to re-invent the songs; taking them in different directions.

I will be the focal point for however long I decide to play. Half of me likes that idea and half of me doesn't, but once the adrenaline kicks in, I'll probably really enjoy it.
