I see music as a lifetime affair.

Playing live is my natural element. It's too hard to relax in the studio because there are too many options. It's just not as exciting.

I've had too many opportunities to sell out.

I'm a great listener - I play records all the time at home. And I play guitar as a hobby. So inspiration has never been a big problem for me, but motivation can be a bit difficult sometimes.

I've never commercialized my music. I've seen that ruin too many people who think two-minute ditties are the answer.

I liked Slash. He's a nice guy and can really play.

I've never been that career conscious.

If anything, even though I can play in the sort of standard string-bending style, in the B.B. King mold and all of that, I've always had a great interest in the more primitive playing, the open chord playing, rhythm and figures.

Basically, I try to treat the electric guitar like an acoustic guitar. What you have to do is attack the instrument and know that your feelings aren't controlled by the controls of your guitar.
