It's always been too slow for me. Playing. The pace of things. I'm a fast sprinter. The trouble was, after playing in the group for a few months, I couldn't reach that point.

I've got a bike. You can ride it if you like. It's got a basket, a bell that rings and things to make it look good. I'd give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it...

Have you seen the roses? There's a whole lot of colours.

There's so much around, you don't know what to listen to. All I've got at home is Bo Diddley, some Stones and Beatles stuff, and old jazz records.

I'm full of dust and guitars.

I never felt so close to a guitar as that silver one with mirrors that I used on stage all the time.

I think of me being a painter eventually.
