Down by the river, I shot my baby dead.

Out of the blue and into the black

In my life I have had various health threats: polio, seizures, a brain aneurysm. None of these things has really changed me much, although it is hard to say for sure. These are events that are part of my life. They make me who I am. I am thankful for them. They are scary.

I go in and sing the song and arrange it and mix it and that's it. It's no different than playing in clubs.

I have so many opinions about everything it just comes out during my music. It's a battle for me. I try not to be preachy. That's a real danger.

My career is built around a pattern that just keeps repeating itself over and over again. There's nothing surprising about it at all. My changes are as easy to predict as the sun coming up and down.

Link Wray... He was the beginning of Grunge, way before anybody you know.
