When you're growing up you need your parents, but you don't want to be associated with them because you're trying to have your own life.

I prefer to be an equal-opportunity offender of the guitar.

If I weren't in the band, I would be a fan.

I always thought I wrote good bridges. I was a bit more impressed with the bridges I wrote than maybe the songs I wrote.

I'm a reactor. I can react to crowds, performing situations.

The worst thing your parents can do is try to emulate you.

I'm quite an example. I have four kids, all from the same wife, all from the same husband.
