It's taken folk a while to come around, hasn't it? Even the boys in the band weren't too sure about the whole art thing. They just wanted me to concentrate on the music. But they respect it now.

All my life there's always been an ex-wife or a girlfriend.

I always want to rock.

The last show we played, I was straight as a die. It did feel weird not to be hiding behind alcohol or dope, but being focused was... good.

I'm terrible with money, absolutely awful. I'm always losing it.

Regina Spektor is great. I can't wait to see what more she's capable of.

My dad lived till he was 78, my mum was in her 80s, and I've got two uncles who are in their 90s now.
