To me there's a definite way of doing a song. If I didn't think that, I wouldn't have done it that way in the first place.

The first real thing I heard was Three O'Clock Blues by B.B. King. That's where it all began for me.

Once you start copying other people's licks, you begin thinking they're yours. Doing that's just an easy way out.

My energy flagged because of heavy cold but the guys took up the slack.

I remember the snow in Canada and the lovely weather in New Zealand. And I slightly remember going to school there.

I will obviously take on board everything from my past, I always do.

There are no plans to do any more live stuff. I really feel like there's enough live shows out there.
