We got touring with the Stones, and people were trying to keep up with Keith. He's like a human machine with a constitution of iron, and they all thought they could do the same.

I just think my body can't handle it any more. I did try a little drink a while back, and I was actually physically ill. I went into an immediate depression, and felt awful, just dreadful. So that's it. I'm over it now.

I'm a diplomat by nature. I help find the middle ground. I crack a joke and use humour to help resolve potentially vicious situations quickly. It gets things in perspective and helps everyone to see that things aren't as bad as they seem.

We'll rock till we drop. We have all agreed this won't be the last time. Everyone's rocking.

I have a life coach out with me on tour, a very nice guy from L.A. He just prepares me for each day.

You don't make solo albums to have hits.

In my family, they were all big boozers, but they all lived to ripe old ages.
