lying player guitar
I could have probably gone on and still played the part of the guitar player of Limp Bizkit, but musically I was kind of bored. If I was to continue, it would have been about the money and not about the true music, and I don't want to lie to myself, or to them or to fans of Limp Bizkit.
unique player guitar
I've never really been schooled in music theory. I'm a guitar player, and I attack the guitar in a certain way that it not fully unique to me, but it's more unique that some other people.
almost factory limp matched wrong
I almost shouldn't be in Limp Bizkit; it's like I got matched in the factory with the wrong band.
band breathe decided dying ground life maybe officially stop thinking time trying
We're officially on hiatus, maybe even officially over. It's kind of up in the air. No one said, 'We're done as a band.' Everyone's just doing their own thing, and (some members) don't have time for this band anymore. I haven't quit, but I've also decided to stop thinking about Limp. I'm not going to keep trying to breathe life into a dying animal. It just ground to a halt.
song buzz way
When playing any song in front of an audience, you're watching them experience it, and it changes. In a lot of ways, it's almost like the music is just the background buzz to what's happening between you and the audience in the room.
names perfect guy
I've never been in a band where someone goes, 'Ah, I've got the perfect name! And it's because I climbed Mount Fuji, and at the top a golden dove came down...' It's always a bunch of guys sitting around going, 'How about Rotten Chipmunks?
voice long singers
It took me a long time to find my voice as a singer, and I'm happy that I did.
want stuff
I'm too old to be farting around with stuff that isn't precisely what I want to do.
thinking voice soul
I would love to put out music that was just stunning or soul-baring or whatever. But I don't think I have the voice for it.
taken singing done
I don't feel like singing should be taken lightly. It's one of the hardest things I've ever done, but it's coming along.
pain kind feels
I don't feel there's any kind of pain in my life.
complaining
I have nothing to complain about.
song character writing
All I want to do is write songs about funny characters I made up.
trying world sells
We're gonna totally sell out and try to dominate the world
