All I can ever hope to be to my son is someone who's supportive, someone who listens and understands and points out possible other ways of thinking, ways of feeling, ways of approaching things, suggests rather than demands.

I do think about and do occasionally take my wife and son out with me on tour. It's difficult.

I in no way, shape, or form envision myself as the modern-day Ozzy Osbourne - nobody can.

I think that people are too... They've become genre snobs.

Many people have eclectic tastes. Many people like to listen to all kinds of different music. I mean, I do; I'll listen to many different styles inside a day, a week, a month, a year. It doesn't matter.

Music is meant to cross boundaries.

I'm a huge Kiss fan.

People make their own destinies.

I'm all about freedom to go ahead and practice whatever kind of religions you want, have whatever sort of sexual preference you want, freedom in terms of being pro choice for women.

For whatever reason, the mainstream media, for the most part, affixes itself to progressive or liberal propaganda.
