I used to have friends come on tour and work as my drum tech, but they get bummed out when I have to tell them what to do. This time I`m just going to fly them out and let them hang. It`s all good.

Express yourself, put stuff down on tape, and see what lives.

I've always loved playing in bands where there's like three or four people and we're all throwing out ideas and coming together to make an album.

Playing my drums is therapy.

When I look at music, everything is blurred, and I like it that way. I grew up like that, hanging out with different types of people who listened to so many different types of music. I never wanted to be part of any one clique. I loved it all.

I was a kid, and I wasn't even sure if I wanted to play the drums, you know? All I wanted to do was skateboard, but I was still learning and taking it in, so it was good.

On tour, you never have a home, you don`t get used to anything, and you`re always super busy.
