The guitar part is the pivot of everything we do, so if you change the guitar part you no longer have what it is.

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

I have done some things that I'm very proud of. I don't think you can say any more than that, really.

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

It was an experience being on a Beatles tour. They weren't very good. The singing was great, but the playing was a bit weak.

I didn't sit down and work out other people's material; I've never believed in that.

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.
