I was very keen on people like Elvis, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Gene Vincent.
I got a guitar when I was about 14, for a Christmas present, and went from there.
A wah-wah is important as well. I love it; it makes the guitar scream.
I didn't sit down and work out other people's material; I've never believed in that.
My songs are more arrangements than they are songs.
Once I've settled on something I'll stay with that at least throughout the whole tour.
