In order to get somewhere in life, you need to have a vision. The vision brings you to the table. Without a vision, you just do what everybody else does and you are just there.

I have always known that it comes from deep within myself. I always knew what sound I wanted, and how I wanted to play. I knew everything, it just had to be developed.

I have made stage adjustments which allow me to hear myself better onstage so that has made playing live much more enjoyable.

I prefer playing in the studio because you have much more control over things.

It would be a dream come true if I could just go from studio to studio and play solos.

I view life as a learning experience. It is not so much all about music; it is about what happens when you are doing the music.

I play with feeling so I need to hear what is coming out of the amplifier to inspire me; I dont just play mechanically. I need to hear what I am doing in order to create the next note. If I dont hear it then I cant feed myself.
