Electric red hair is more for, like, people in their 20s and early 30s.
I've seen guys on the street who look the part of a rock star just as much as any rock star. If you feel it and you believe it, then you can get away with it. Rock on!
A lot of journalists like to suck up to celebrities, and then as soon as they're a safe distance away at their computers, they take shots. But that's the way society has become, especially in pop culture.
If I was in a zombie apocalypse, I wouldn't be playing music, because that would attract zombies.
Having children showed me a whole different kind of love that I had never known. It was something that had always been missing. Complete love. I would die for them.
As horrible as jail was, there were some first-rate guys in there.
As I've gotten older and my life is a lot more stable, I've gotten more into storytelling.
Anytime I feel squeezed into a box, I just lash out. My gut reaction is to strike. It's a different character onstage: there's a whole dark sexuality that's completely different from me. You know, I don't let anybody know who I really am.
When I was around nine years old, I was a fan of Shaun Cassidy's first album.
I was on the pro-Nirvana, anti-Pearl Jam bandwagon.
I like wearing fitted jackets mixed with jeans, a button-down shirt and a tie. I like to keep the rock and roll feel but class it up a bit. As far as stage clothes, I prefer John Varvatos and All Saints. They have clothing that is really accessible for wearing every day as well as for wearing on stage. I also love J. Lindeberg's suits.
In my creative life, David Bowie is definitely an enormous influence on me, being one of rock's greatest shapeshifters.
I'm one of the luckiest people in the world that I was able to do what I fell in love with and be able to make a living doing it.
I listened to a lot of Bob Dylan songs to see how he works. I've gotten into writing story-songs.
