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

To play the drums, you have to spread your legs and use your arms. It's a very physical instrument to play. It's not feminine.

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.

No one really listens to the drums, I don't think. They're there, but it's not a conscious thing to listen to. Everyone listens to the vocals, of course, and the words.

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

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

For people that are in recovery, you really need to stick by your boundaries. It's hard because you're sharing this space and this experience with other people who might not need to do those things for themselves.
