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.

I try to do an hour of cardio on the days that I have off, and then I'll do 30 to 45 minutes on show days. That's the first thing I do when I wake up, I have breakfast and then I'll hit the gym.

It seems like I have more in common - or hit it off better - with rappers than fools that are in rock music. It was always natural for me.

Oh, I was super serious about practicing and rudiments, and still am. I still have all my books.

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

I'm obsessed with my children.
