I always wanted to play music, and always loved it. I saw a band come to school, when I was in elementary school, and wanted to play drums. I started playing drums at 11, and that's where it all started.

The drums are what drives the whole thing. It's the backbone of the song.

Talking about music and talking about drums brings me back to my beginning and the simplicity, and the excitement about trying to play something and see if it works for your band.

I feel like I'm 11 again, with my drums. It doesn't matter if it's good or bad. I'm just playing.

You've really got to keep on improving and improving and improving. It still involves work. It's not like you get to a point, and then you're good and that's it.

I love to go see live music. That used to be what I would do, almost every other night, and watch drummers play.
