I'm now so keenly aware that I have everything to prove and nothing to lose.
I've always loved groups like U2 and Coldplay.
I can't wait to front my band with these new songs and play for fans, but I've decided to keep my day job too.
To me, there was no better drummer than Jeff Porcaro. His musicianship and kindness to me will never be forgotten. Our loss is heaven's gain
I think I do better when things are a little tougher.
I'm happy, I would say that I'm one of the happiest people I know but I've certainly had periods of profound sadness, depression and heartache and those are the kind of things that are interesting to me to write about.
