Obviously, I'm not homeless. I'm not an old alcoholic. I'm not jumping trains. I just like to live in a certain way.
I was real religious when I was young. I wanted to be a missionary.
I hate to be enclosed. I don't like bathroom doors - I don't shut them. In fact, in my house, I have no doors.
I just like living in certain atmospheres. Or I just like people as they are.
I'd never had people drive me around, and then all of a sudden, if a car didn't come, I'd say, "Where's my car?"
My father hated rock and roll - hated it. My first real argument with my father was over the Rolling Stones. And he never, ever liked rock and roll. He just liked me.
I was always trying to pick guys up. I'd ask guys out and stuff like that. I had no pride. I was the biggest lurch at dances, waiting for the ladies' choice. I'd lunge at my prey like a baby wolf.
I can't judge how another person does their [music] work. Everyone has a choice and the music industry is much more open that it was when I was younger. Certain things are gone, others have developed, but everyone makes their choices. Pop music has always been about the mainstream and what appeals to the public. I don't feel it's my place to judge. I just look at things as a fan, I like or or I don't like it.
If I'm really working on something, writing or painting or really concentrating, I don't even think about brushing my hair.
I believe we all have a unique journey, whether its a journey of pure energy, if there's any intelligence within the journey. But I think each of us have our own way of dissipating or entering a new field.
My father came a couple of times, but he always blamed his hearing loss on my loud amplifiers. So he didn't come anymore, but I had his support.
I think its very important that we enjoy our life, that we get everything we can out of it.
People say the media is feeding the public's hunger for celebrity news, but that's the drug pusher's mentality. I don't think anybody would be pining for news about Angelina Jolie's babies if it weren't being given to them in the first place.
I feel about politics the same way I do about religion: I find the best I can from different things.
