Drummers are conductors - we set the pace for the music - so if you're not relaxed and feeling right, the whole thing goes out the window.

It's only rock and roll, my god! It's not rocket science.

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.

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.

People fight, they get angry, they do drugs, and they do crazy things.

I'm not gonna be a slave. I'm a rock n' roller.

Part of recovery is relapse. I dust myself off and move forward again.
