If fans come up to me, I talk to them.
I don't go out and pick fights.
My favorite jellybean is the pink one with the flavor inside.
It's the band that really counts and not our egos. Egos probably destroyed more bands than anything else did, and that's something we want to avoid at all costs. We want to give the audience something real, something spectacular, and if it would be about egos, it would hardly be worth their time.
I don't drink. I choose to be sober now. I have drunk over the last six years, but I just don't want to be that person anymore.

Tattoos are permanent and a lifelong commitment, the same as marriage.
