The music beckons to those who are listening.

I listen to the crowds [laughs]... I like Blind Melon very much.

The essence of Bonham is what he didn't play rather than what he did play - what he left out.

All I can say is that it's amazing what you can accomplish when you're young and foolish.

It's a two-dimensional gig being a singer, and you can get lost in your own tedium and repetition.

I kind of disguise my limitations by hanging out with very talented people. The excitement of the collision between the microphone-twirling guy from 1966 to now is just a fantastic adventure. There aren't many of us left and I've managed to kind of cover my tracks pretty good.

There's a constant conflict, really, within me. As much as I really enjoy what I do at home... I play on my own little soccer team and I've been taking part in the community and living the life of any ordinary guy, I always find myself wistful and enveloped in a feeling I can't really get out of my system.
