People often say very, very nice, complimentary things. But I think it's better if you don't take that too much to heart.

I was very keen on people like Elvis, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Gene Vincent.

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.

If I could sing, I wouldnt be a guitarist.

I have short hands. That's why I have to bend up to notes; I can't always reach the frets.

Music has nothing to do with your technical ability.

I got a guitar when I was about 14, for a Christmas present, and went from there.
