bunch hear rather stories
You know what? I feel my book is kind of pointless. I didn't want to do a book, but rather than tell the same old stories over and over when my wife Angie and I are out at parties, I could just hand out a bunch of books, and she won't have to hear them ever again.
ukulele sick drug
Everyone reaches their point in time where either they die or they get sick of doing drugs. It started getting debilitating. I enjoy my music a lot better than my drugs.
provided sloth work
I'm an all-or-nothing guy. When I'm working, I work, work, work, work, work, and when I'm not, I'm the laziest sloth this planet has ever provided us.
absolutely barbados clean drinking might obama olympic people roads structures system turkey
Obama might as well be president of Turkey or Brazil; it does not matter. It's the system that is absolutely flawed, where 25 or 35 or 50 people make multi, multi-billions on building Olympic structures while people live in Barbados and have no roads or clean drinking water. There's something pretty inequitable there.
amuse basically died forth god journalist keeps people theory
There was one theory put forth by a journalist recently. I have a lot of friends that have died prematurely and a lot of friends that have died of natural causes. I've lost a lot of people over the years. This journalist basically recommended to me that God keeps me around because I amuse him.
cds coming gig ministry studio yes
We'll see if we ever do another Ministry gig again or not. I'm not saying yes or no yet. All I'm saying is I know there's no new Ministry studio CDs coming ever again. I promise.
people stopped time
I can't control what people think of me, and I stopped really caring a long time ago.
along cool good great
I get along great with all of my exes. That's really cool. That's a good sign.
bands hang rid
I hate bands that hang around, like, 10 years too long - they're like the drunk at a party you can't get rid of.
night clubs arena
I'd still prefer to do five nights at a club than one night at Allstate Arena.
blues collection home industrial ipod music strictly
I'm done with industrial. Seriously, my iPod collection at home has no industrial music on it; it's strictly jazz, blues and country.
apply best bunch
I'm getting a bunch more face tattoos, because it doesn't look like I'm ever going to have to apply to a Walmart or Best Buy.
biggest fan games since
I'm the biggest Blackhawks fan ever. I've been going to games since I was 6 years old.
accused credited music
If I did all the stuff I've been accused of - or credited with - there's no way I could make all this music. I'd be drinking myself into the grave.
