When I played in a band, people just stand there and look at you and criticize what they didn’t like. But if you watch a D.J. show, people go crazy from beginning to end. Say what you want against D.J.’s, but you can’t deny that the energy level in the audience is for the most part far above what rock bands have Picture Quote #1

I think that certainly, whenever you have a new band, the first record always has a certain energy to it before you know what you’re doing. I think some of the early Sonic Youth stuff was maybe like that Picture Quote #1

To fans in a festival setting it’s like a picnic. You want to have a good time with your friends in that crowd. And in the background you hear the band play, ‘Oh, that’s my favorite song!’ everyone is there to enjoy the afternoon and that’s about it Picture Quote #1

Plot idea: 97% of the world’s scientists contrive an environmental crisis, but are exposed by a plucky band of billionaires and oil companies Picture Quote #1

And that’s what I wanted to be, principally: a guitar player Picture Quote #1

No way, because there’s love relationships, there’s sex relationships and then there’s the band Picture Quote #1

Whenever I am not traveling during the winter, I am pushing hard in the gym. Even when I am traveling, I try to fit a workout in at the hotel. And if the hotel doesn’t have a gym? You can get a good workout in your room with an exercise band and some imagination Picture Quote #1

The music that I made in my band wasn’t the expression of everything I was into. Bands are based on compromise Picture Quote #1

I think my ultimate fashion icon would have to be Gwen Stefani. I love her persona; I love what she embodies and represents. I love the fact that she was a girl fronting a band of boys in No Doubt Picture Quote #1

Sure, we’ve had our fair share of ups and downs, but I don’t know if we’ve had more than any other rock band... we just have a way of getting ourselves into hot water Picture Quote #1

I didn’t have any expectations of what my family life would end up being like. But I’ve been very blessed in my life to have a wife who loves me and supports me and is able to be in my band and travel with me Picture Quote #1
