Chasing the sensation. Whether it was drugs or sex or whatever. Those things had become my main focus in life.

Before my accident I was a little too... selfish and self-absorbed and for me, to now be at the place where I can kinda give back and inspire people. I'm blessed. I'm really blessed.

I really don't feel any strong allegiance to any country.

I have never been one for the over-the-top.

I was happy in Dublin because it is very cosmopolitan.

If I couldn't play drums it would have destroyed me. If you're thrown in the deep end you swim, and that's basically what I did. I had to do it and with the rest of the band behind me and the encouragement I got from people from all over the world, I knew that I was going to play

And more importantly, I wouldnt be the person I am today, I wouldnt be where I am now and I may not even have been here if it wasnt for the accident.
