Loud is a way of life.

One thing about Texas people, they're very passionate about their Rock N' Roll, and I love it.

Don't try to follow any trends, just concentrate on writing great songs and knowing your instrument. All the other stuff will fall into place.

I just got tired of being sick and tired and feeling down. Unfortunately, you don't realize this until you're getting sober but the reason why you're depressed all the time is it's the drugs that are depressing you.

I look in the mirror and see a few scars, but I like myself.

Nothing is cooler and more attractive than a big comeback, and that'll be me.

I'm very influenced by jazz drummers. I always liked drummers like Roger Taylor, Keith Moon, Ian Paice, John Densmore. I just learned from playing to those drummers.
