I think that part of my success was the fact that I would literally threaten your life if you got in-between me and what I wanted to do with my music. I was so drunk and in-your-face and so ADHD and so unhinged that I kind of got what I wanted.

CD's are amazing because you get the artwork, you get to look at the lyrics, you get to look at the behind-the-scenes photos or something.

For me, we're all comfortable, we're all happy, hopefully, but at the same time something will happen and you have to kind of understand that phenomenon. You have to understand what's going on and I've always been fascinated by craziness and lunacy.

For many people out there in the world, music is the only thing that gives them relief, so it’s awesome to be a part of that tradition.

I have to stay positive and live for today and tomorrow.

You just have to follow your own heart.

I was always getting my way. I was always the guy saying yes or no.
