I see a lot of parents now who are really supporting their kids playing music.

If you get raised up having everything you want and then get put out in the world and try to live your own life, you've never had anything to train you how to live.

Apparently, there's this whole set of disgruntled people but obviously it's not my intention to offend anyone by changing the style of music that I've done.

During a big rock show, you can flub a few things and nobody will hear it, because it gets buried under everything else.

Science is about filling in the details.

Comparisons do ofttime great grievance.
