I don't want to say that most rock bands live these formulaic biography existences - but they kinda do. There's always a divorce. There's always an OD. There's always a bad business manager.

Rock stars are like sports stars: If you snap your ankle, you're done.

I like the rock documentaries that make it seem real. Some rock documentaries are meant to make the bands look larger than life.

Once I got into punk rock, I started mail-ordering albums, because a lot of the record stores in my area didn't carry the punk bands from England or Sweden or Chicago or Los Angeles

There's always gonna be rock n' roll bands, there's always gonna be kids that love rock n' roll records, and there will always be rock n' roll.

To me the most important thing is getting into a studio and making an album that is 12 or 14 amazing songs, getting up onstage, and making people happy by livening the rock.

From one generation to the next, The Beatles will remain the most important rock band of all time.

What we feel most comfortable doing is playing loud, screaming rock songs.
