column music school wrote
I wrote the music column in my high school newspaper.
books music saying
My books are personal: I'm not saying they're the Bible of music.
changed places
The one thing that's changed for 'That Metal Show' is that it's now global; it's now on in places outside of America.
awesome love tv
I still love radio, but TV is also an awesome platform.
life literally music
I have literally been working in music just about my entire life.
cd music
I have an iPod, but I put my music in it from my CDs, and then I have that CD in my library.
since
I am so appreciative of all the attention I've gotten, especially since I don't ever consider myself anything more than a fan.

Anytime rock and metal can get on mainstream TV at all, it's a good thing.
asking bands biggest cool hard less name people realize school severe
It's hard for people to realize now, but my gosh, when I was in school, you could not name a group that was less cool than Kiss. Going in to school with a Kiss T-shirt, you were asking for ridicule. In '77, they were one of the biggest bands in the world, but by '80, there was a severe backlash.
anybody money people seen
One thing I've learned, and I don't really blame anybody for this: most people who have a lot of money are the people that want to make money more than anyone. I've seen it with athletes, I've seen it with musicians, you know?
books caution great saw throw
I think that, for me, the great books like that, autobiographies, are great when the artists who write them throw caution to the wind and really put it out there as they saw it.
carved love people stuff
Years ago, I carved out an identity, and it has always been about having a voice to tell people about stuff I love.
