I guess I've never been introduced properly to Pink Floyd. I know they're great, don't get me wrong. Excellent, excellent musicians; great band; awesome harmony; great song writers; I just don't know anything besides, I guess, the popular songs on the radio.

There's always something going on, but thank goodness these days it's with a clear head, which helps me massively.

I am the type that cannot stay put in living in the past and solely in the past. It's not healthy and it doesn't feel right.

I can easily say I've done everything I've wanted in music.

We definitely have a hardcore following.

You can only exist as far as your mind will allow you to exist, and I think chronic pain will stop time dead in its tracks. You feel like you're the only one, and how unfair it is, and a million different feel-sorry-for-yourself type feelings.

I wasn't that wild about that. I told them basically if they were really going to want to bring back heavy metal to a program on MTV, then they are really going to have to get in touch with what real heavy metal is.
