I just think if I can go from being a homeless kid with a dream of being in the biggest band in the world and making that happen, I can do a lot of other cool stuff, too.

It's time for new bands to step up because KISS and Mtley Cre, Aerosmith, The [Rolling] Stones... we're not always gonna be here. Who's gonna replace us? There's no one out there. It's sad.

A song has to be hummable and memorable at it simplest form, and that's what bass does for me. I feel like the glue to everything.

What's worse? Being strung out or being fat?

At birth we are very much like a new hard drive - no viruses, no bad information, no crap that's been downloaded into it yet. It's what we feed into that hard drive that starts the corruption of the files.

I'll play anyone in Uno and crush them.

Personal chemistry forges the way for musical chemistry.
