I'm still shocked when people say, 'You haven't done a studio record in 20 years.' I try to make excuses for it, but the truth is I just wasn't with it.
We're bigger now than we were in the late 70s when we were peaking.
I've started working on a new album, I'm writing a new book... there are a lot of good things on the horizon.
I've learned a lot of tricks from working with a lot of great producers over the years, and I think I should write a book about it!
I've been around a long time, so I guess I've touched a lot of people's lives - hopefully for the better.
It's always great playing with other musicians. It's also a great situation where I'm the older guy, I've influenced generations of guitar players.
It's always good to walk in a room and know everybody kind of looks up to you because I guess I've earned it.
I have a lot of diehard fans. Ace Frehley fans and Kiss fans are the greatest fans in the world.
