I would say a must-do in Canada would be to go skiing at Whistler in Vancouver. You could take a chair lift for, like, a half hour to the top of this mountain, and you ski down; it takes like so long to get to the bottom. You go past the clouds. It's absolutely incredible.

I’ve been solo since 1996, so I’ve been doing it for a while now.

Well, you know, if you do 200 shows a year, they’re not all going to be like Castle Donnington.

It is incredible to me that my Twitter feed is a source of ‘news’ for every rock news outlet around the world.

Kids don’t go out and buy CDs, they make their own, they download them from the Internet.

I get noticed for different things I’ve done in different areas of town. If I’m in a rock club, it’ll be Skid Row, if I’m in a mall it’s the ‘Gilmore Girls.’

It’s weird, like, my life has always imitated art, and my art has always imitated life.

You ever heard of a guy named Jeff Buckley? He’s one of the best singers I’ve ever heard.

I’m not interested in thinking up the name of a band and a logo and all that. Been there, done that, sold a million T-shirts.

The worst thing I ever wore, really, was rubber pants, but I don’t think that was a cliche. They were just way too hot. Rubber doesn’t breathe. I look back on my photos, and I dig them. I think I look really cool.
