I have a bigger mission than any kind of specific politics, which is trying to restore the accessibility of rock 'n' roll.

We're a little lazy about spirituality in this country.

As most of the population suffers through life, barely surviving, disappointed and confused day after day, hopeless, wondering what happened to their strong and beautiful country, it is in the medias power to restore, if not some of our quality of life, at least a bit of our peace of mind.

Touch the earth, speak of love, walk on common ground.

The first rule of rock and roll is it's all about live. Then you have to learn a second craft, which is making records. It should go in that order.

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

Ive always considered the government taking one out of every two dollars I earn absolute tyranny.
