“Rock n Roll Animal, the live album, is one of the greatest live albums out there. It was a huge influence on me.”

I am not afraid of Trump; I am more afraid of the people that think his ideas are good.

You have to remember that there are still 7 out of 10 people in this country who don’t think his ideas are good ideas.

I pissed away over ten million dollars.

I’m male gigolo. Professionally? I don’t think I’ve ever done anything professionally.

If you remember the ‘90s, you weren’t there.

I feel great. George W.Bush is leaving. We’re leaving. It’s all perfect timing.

I’m for Barack Obama. We gotta have the Muslim cell in there just to piss Rush Limbaugh and the right wing off.

Everything shapes you to be the person you are today. Sometimes hard lessons pay off dividends.

Our label is very digital-friendly. We try to provide some free stuff to get interest in the band, but we have to pay our artists. They have to get paid.

I’m still a recluse. I still hate everyone. I’m still a misanthrope.

I had to do another couple of albums about this idiot. Then I had to play in front of 37 people. It was horrible. I was crying. I was freaked out.

I’d rather live life than watch somebody else living it.

It certainly is gravy every day above ground right now, after kicking that heroin habit.

Rock n roll is for the young idiots, not an old fart like me.

In the 70s, what thrash was there? Punk came on, and that was cool. But there was no thrash.

Radiohead’s already got their yachts and mansions. Sharon Osbourne already has her empire

People say releasing an album is like giving birth, but it’s more like having a gallbladder operation.

I’ve always known that if I recorded an album, it would come out, and people would enjoy it!

One of the hardest things I’ve had to deal with in my career is keeping my material topical even though I only release albums every three or four years.

I like to think that I’ve gotten better at what I do. I spend more time and pay more attention to detail album after album. But pretty much it’s stayed the same.

Probably 90 percent of my albums have polka medleys.

Buy our album, were Nirvana, a garage band from Seattle. Well, it sure beats raising cattle.

It becomes more important to me as time goes on to make every album the best thing I’ve ever done, so it’s a lot of self-imposed pressure that also kind of slows me down a bit.

In the ’80s, I was putting out an album virtually every year, I think mostly based on fear – that if I didn’t, people would soon forget about me.
