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 have to say, the coolest person I ever met in my whole life is John Mellencamp. I never met a person who was more secure about himself and his person.

The only thing I want to be satisfied in life is to do one reunion tour with Guns N Roses. I would like to finish what I started with them.

The golden rule of drums is hands clapping and feet tapping, and when you are in and out of consciousness, you can't do that to best of your ability.

I just had lunch with Slash two days ago. He loves Axl. He holds no grudges towards him. Twenty years of great music wasn't created because of some stupid grudge. That's a shame.

Every 15, 20, 25 years, a new rock and roll record needs to come out and a new rock and roll band needs to come out.

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