Live life to the fullest, and focus on the positive.

The fact that Eddie Vedder likes to play 3 hour plus shows a night, I have to be ready for that.

I've always liked to be the kind of drummer and musician who likes to go outside of what's expected of me.

I think it's really important these days to be able to relate to how the music flows and be able to speak the same language as your bandmates and the producer, rather than just talking drums.

When I first went on tour with PJ in '98, I was still in shock having gone through the Soundgarden break up.

So, I just kind of played the way I played and then eventually we kind of figured out what worked best for the band. So, I definitely changed my stuff up and I think we're playing really tight now.

Live life to the fullest, and focus on the positive.
