This was the point of our lives when we found pills, uppers. That's the only way we could continue playing for so long. They were called Preludin, and you could buy them over the counter. We never thought we were doing anything wrong, but we'd get really wired and go on for days. So with beer and Preludin, that's how we survived.

For me, God is in my life. I don't hide from that... I think the search has been on since the '60s.

They said do what you want, because if we don't like it no one will hear it.

I was in George Martin's studio in Amsterdam and he was telling me, 'They come in here and it takes them three days to do a bass line.' Well I'm not from that era.

I've never broken a bone in my life, or in my body.

I feel as though that was someone else playing. I was possessed!

My occupation is syncopation. But, every time, my syncopation is different, because I can never play the same fill twice. I just can't, never have been able to.
