I'm not interested in thinking up the name of a band and a logo and all that. Been there, done that, sold a million T-shirts.

The worst thing I ever wore, really, was rubber pants, but I don't think that was a cliche. They were just way too hot. Rubber doesn't breathe. I look back on my photos, and I dig them. I think I look really cool.

Metal is still the biggest music now in America.

Well, you know, if you do 200 shows a year, they're not all going to be like Castle Donnington.

The way I look at a solo project is, I create what I want with whoever I want.

I still get crazy once in a while, but just less crazy.

America gets rock stars a little more than Canada does.
