When I run on stage now, a thousand people don't even see you, they're in their phone.

Last night I had a peace dream.

You either kiss the future or the past goodbye.

That's all drugs and alcohol do, they cut off your emotions in the end.

In 1989 I sort of got back into the music business and one of the reasons I got back in is [that] I put the first All Stars band together. It's actually progressed from that every other year, or every two years, I've put that together...more and more realizing that's what I do.

John had Julian and I had Zak so we'd try to do the fatherly things. We'd try to do manly things too; we'd go to the pub and bring Maureen and Cynthia a Babycham or something- a real Liverpool attitude

I never studied anything, really. I didn't study the drums. I joined bands and made all the mistakes onstage.
