A lot of people think that punk rock musicians don't know what they're doing.

I listened a little to punk when I was younger, but it was straight edge punk. It was nothing like what is going on now, like poppy punk.

I wanted to say thanks... and share my gratitude for everything I've been blessed with. Family, friends, and continued support from everyone.

In the hospital, I promised myself that I ever walked again, that I would eat well and swim every day.

In junior high, I sang in madrigals, men's' and women's' choir. I played piano too, but then I got out of it.

And I was in another band called Flash In The Pan, which was soca, Latin music, down in Laguna Beach.

Put me up in front of a million people and ask me to speak. I'll flop. But put me behind my drums and I'll always go with it.
