A rock musician's career is short-lived. To extend it, you need to do other things to keep yourself fresh.

L.A. is full of screenwriters. I don't know why. On many levels, it's such a thankless occupation.

After a while, you just don't do things you don't wanna do - that's the great freedom you get, the older you get. You learn what to do and what not to do, and what will be a waste of time and what won't be a waste of time.

An audience is the perfect thing to unleash venom and hate on. It doesn't necessarily mean you hate everyone in the audience but when you've got a so-called adoring mass in front of you, it's a perfect target for that kind of disgust. Sometimes you find yourself in a position where you're venting your disgust on an audience and a lot of them keep coming back 'cos they actually like that aspect. In a way that diffuses the feeling and you don't gel the same release.

It's always a pleasure on a personal note for me to come back to Australia.

Jesus Christ was the biggest blight on the human race, he was. And all them socialists and communists - second rate Christianity.

I have a particular dislike for children's films. I'm way past the novelty aspect.
