I lived up on Kanan and Mulholland. It's a bit of a drive, but once you get there, the horses, vineyards, it's just so peaceful.

Nikki lives around the corner from me and I see him all the time. We talk a lot, and of course we're still friends. That was our baby, Motley Crue, we put that band together.

I'm really a cool, mellow guy. I'm not as crazy as everybody thinks.

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 got it: stay away from cocaine and heroin.

The record is definitely a musical journey. It's kind of all over the place, which I like.

It's all about the music. For me, that's truly what I live for. Just music constantly. Always listening to, writing, or playing music. That's definitely me.
