Different people bring out different aspects of ones personality.

I remember when metal was something you really had to search out, and now I hear it on car commercials.

It wasn't until after private lessons and learning bass lines that I even noticed bass in the music I was listening to at that age. My ears were blown wide open.

I feel akin to the Platypus. An orphan in a family. A swimmer, a recluse. Part bird, part fish, part lizard.

I love being a musician. I love the lifestyle. But I think it's probably as difficult and frustrating as anything.

It's too hard for me to comment on the sorry state of our culture.

I have no inflated ideas about success anyway.
