I would say a must-do in Canada would be to go skiing at Whistler in Vancouver. You could take a chair lift for like a half hour to the top of this mountain and you ski down, it takes like so long to get to the bottom. You go past the clouds. It's absolutely incredible.

I've been solo since 1996, so I've been doing it for a while now.

Metal is still the biggest music now in America.

I listen to music for emotion and I get zero emotion from rap.

Yes, but I have to say this: the band is going to decide where the band plays.

No, if it was up to me every record would be brand new studio material but Atlantic records asked me to put out a full live record because my tour really did do well last year.

It is easy for me to go play a rock show, I have been doing that all my life and I love that.
