A person starts dying when they stop dreaming.
If I err, I err on the side of believing this is a serious business. Frankly, I think there's too much talk about 'style.'
If you start pandering to young people, you're going to get accused of simply giving people what they want.
My wife and children seem to like me quite a bit, and as long as that is true, I'm really OK.
Since light travels faster than sound, some people appear to be bright until you hear them speak.
You are only as good as the coach thinks you are.
I don't like giving names to generations. It's like trying to read the song title on a record that's spinning.
I haven't studied with anyone. "doing it yourself" is something I took from punk rock, though I believe that's a pretty bankrupt myth, that one does it themself. When we all do it ourself, we're all doing it, aren't we?
I think one of the most boring things is a person's taste.
I think there's a lot of naivete and hubris within our mix of personalities. That's probably our worst crime. I keep wondering what a "mature" record means.
I think when I began, I played distortion more than the guitar. The results of my strumming. Now I play the twang of the string, which is a lot closer to the source of the sound making.
I've always been a tapper, as in, on tables, school desks, my legs and chest. I've eventually been able to figure out how to move that to the guitar.
Now and then, I had moments of greatness, but I never knew how to duplicate it consistently.
The idea of the band is becoming more of a foldable, interchangable, and disposable idea. It was a big deal when Ron Wood joined the rolling stones, but I don't think anyone would notice if Pearl Jam got a new guitarist.
