I'll play drums a lot at home, and it will help my wrist action.

Once I was playing and moving around and I fell right on my back. Just straight on my back. It was the most embarrassing moment of my life.

I learned a lot about lead; you don't have to blow your cookies in the first bar. It is much harder to be simple that to be complicated during solos.

When I'm with Purple, I'm totally with Purple; when I'm doing my thing, I'm totally doing my own thing.

When you come from the Midwest, you have a more open mind than if you come from the West Coast or the East Coast.

Lots of times it really doesn't matter what notes you play, but what notes come before and after a run.

I just started off on my own by learning the regular chords then the barre chords. Then I'd lean the notes that would go with them.
