world way peppers
In the Chili Peppers I'm a part of that world in a pretty big world and that's just the way it is.
phases ive-learned
I'm going through a phase where I'm really accomplishing a lot of things and in that is everything I've learned.
giving water pure
Because I'm pure inside, the music that comes out of me is a life-giving thing. Like water.
guitar hands space
Pot put me in a position where I could walk far away from my playing and hear it in the second person. It helped me step away from myself. I stopped seeing the guitar as a thing I'm holding in my hands and started seeing it as a thing that's at one with outer space and nothingness.
people world use
I'm also very impressed with the best people in experimental electronic world, like Peta and Eckart Aillers and Finez and Jim O'Rourke and Oren Umbarci and Francesco Lopez. Most of them use the computer as their main instrument.

I don't want to be on the radio. I don't want to be on Mtv.
mean creative mars
For me my friendship with Omar Rodriguez from Mars Volta that friendship really means a lot to me because he's another creative person who works as hard as I do.
records fans selling
I feel like I'd like to continue putting out records and start putting them out more rapidly than I have until now and for me if I can keep selling the records to the fans that already like me that's fine.

Anybody who's a guitar player that's spent that time with another guitar player, there's nothing better than that.

You know this moment in time Is all my life Every day is each day that's passed Every person alive is everyone's who's died
dream wall space
Dream that you died It takes you out of your mind The black walls of space Take me all the way
play people listen-to-your-heart
I'm not interested in forcing my music on people, and that's what the whole music industry nowadays is based on is forcing stations to play it, forcing people to listen to it.
guitar world littles
Any guitar solo should reflect the music that it's soloing over and not just be existing in its own sort of little world.
running strong night
A slave in the fields one night He's running along Gets far enough to be a free man And he's feeling so strong
