Sometimes when you have children they're the opposites of you.

Once the song is done and recorded, I like to go back and then cut the drums, because then I know exactly what the song needs, and what it doesn't need.

The only thing that's changed for me is that I've figured out a new way to do this; when I go to record, I like to do the drums last, if that makes any sense to you.

If it's successful and it sounds awesome, and looks killer live, then I guess I can pat myself on the back and take all the credit too.

I am such a gearhead. In my recording studio, I personally engineer and edit everything on computers.

There's Tommy, Tommy Lee the rock star, and Tommy the dad. I'm wearing several hats these days.

It's always interesting to me that we all hear music differently. It's an awesome experience to hear what other people hear.
