I don't have a Twitter or a Facebook, but that doesn't mean I'm any more productive than the rest of the world.

I prefer to connect with fans from the stage. Like, I don't have a Twitter page, or anything like that. So for me, that's what the show is about. For me - is a way to interact with fans; being up onstage and showing them, through music - which is all I really know - the best way to say thank you.

It takes a lot to still believe in people.

I always wanted to be a singer, but none of my friends thought I could sing.

I idolised bands like Pearl Jam and Smashing Pumpkins, who wanted to reach as many people as they could.

As a songwriter I hate this whole, 'If it's a sad song, it has to sound like a sad song thing.' And that goes all the way back to my days with the Format. I'm an insane narcissist, so if I have to get something off my chest, I'll get something off my chest.

A lot of times when I'm writing lyrics, I just think about insecurities that I might have and turn them into a scene. Some things may be true, and some things may not.
