Mick Fleetwood was one of my first interviews. And if you've ever talked to that dude, he's the sweetest guy in the world - he's just a trip.
Mom, thanks for letting me drop out of high school. Haha!
What I really miss these days in music - is the music. I prefer to listen to melodies and songs, not just sounds.
I'm a skinny, geeky, high school dropout - it works, kids! Sensitive guys always get the girl. You'll get laid 10 times as much as that guy on the football team 'cause he's on steroids and he's gonna get fat.
At school where you a dunce or a teacher's pet? All of the above. I was stupid so they thought I was cute.
I'm told that my blood sugar level was twelve times the legal limit - I was sweating honey.
It's tough to go to sleep at night, and I wake up after five hours because I feel like I'm wasting time. I just sit up at night and think about what I can do next.
I'd like to imagine I won't end up in Hell, but I think I've done too much acid and listened to too much death metal to sit on a cloud next to God with angels floating above my head.
There's a band in a garage right now writing songs for an album that will do the same thing 'Nevermind' did some 20 years ago. We don't know who and where, but it will f***ing happen again. All it takes is for that storm to break.
I'm kind of claustrophobic... It's not even like enclosed spaces. It's like I hate being stuck in one band, you know? Just being stuck is the biggest drag, for fear that, you know, just that you can't get out.
What we feel most comfortable doing is playing loud, screaming rock songs.
When you're thirteen and listening to punk, the aggressive nature of music can sway you to the dark side.
People are so into digital recording now they forgot how easy analog recording can be.
I love to play music. So why endanger that with something like drugs?
