I was taught early on in my recovery that, 'Pain is good. Extreme pain is extremely good.'
Mike NessI got tattoos for purely antisocial reasons, and now people do it for social acceptance. I miss the individualism.
Mike NessI think I'm probably going to have more luck on tour, on the road, than I am at home, because as hectic as traveling can be, I have a little bit more control, for life situations out there on the road. It's the one aspect of my life I feel like I do have some control of. I can wake up in my hotel room, I'm alone and I can ease into the day and do what I need to do. It's not like I've got to get up and drive the kids to school, feed the dog, get to the gym, go to practice, go pay a bill, you know what I mean?
