I am interested in the interaction of a group of people who have a common goal, or a common obsession, each contributing something unique to make something greater than the sum of its parts. I don't know why, but from day one, that has interested me.

Anytime you spend six months on a song (Born to Run), there's something not exactly going right. A song should take about three hours.

I'd never go onstage in my life without fully intending to do the best show you've ever seen.

We never understood the concept of people going onstage and giving anything less than 100 percent. Maybe that's a blue-collar work ethic, but I call it just ethics.

I was in the back of the car with my girlfriend, the Rascals came on the radio and I realized their song was sexier than the sex I was trying to have.

My lifelong friend and mentor Frank Barsalona is gone. And the music business as we knew it went with him.

I have lost a brother and a best friend. The world has lost one of the greatest actors of all time.
