I kind of live in this weird world where I am exposed to a lot of stuff, but then again I am not exposed to a lot of stuff.

Even as a kid, if I would come across something cool in the record store, that would be how I found out about bands. It's kind of the same way these days. In a way even less because there are no record stores to go to anymore.

I could care less about sitting around and practicing the guitar for hours a day and trying to be the best guitar player on the planet.

Everything I do is metal. When I clean my house, it's metal.

People think of Jews as the Woody Allen stereotype, the nebbishy kind of thing, but that's not the kind of Jews I know. I know plenty of Israelis and plenty of tough guys that are Jewish. So, I think it makes sense that Jews play metal.

I have enough to think about - I just don't ever want to have to think about my car.

I love what I do, somehow I have been able to play in a band for my entire life and that is all I ever wanted to do. I love that I get to do that.
