Any guy that's not working with the same amount of intensity and passion that I do, I don't want to know.

If somebody says they really like my playing I say thanks a lot

Live, it's just the free flow and the energy and the excitement. It's a one-off and you have that adrenaline for an hour and a half.

Another Black Label motto. That's what I think life is. It's just another bridge to cross. You ask no questions. Whatever work it is you gotta do, you gotta go over it, under it, through it, around it, to do it.

As much as I love heavy riffs, I like The Eagles, Neil Young, Elton John, Crowded House.

Every night I get up on stage, I love it. I never get like, 'Oh, I'm bored, I want to go home.' I never, ever get like that.

You're never going to learn everything.
