We don’t really have more than acouple of solos. It’s just the way our music is put together.

It’s just such a pleasure to bring a talent you respect to the world.

I don’t want to wreck my voice. I love to concentrate on playing the bass and keeping it very rock-solid. If I were singing, I would have blown out my voice.

We groove off of everything, any sort of live show. The inner dialogue you’re having with yourself, between you and the music, is for me the search for God.

Sometimes you don’t want to be a slapstick clown in order to convey a funny perception of the world.

I would really love to work with Paul McCartney. Isn’t that arrogant?

I play bass. I don’t have to go out there and screech.

Generosity is the key to all relationships. To friendships and bands. That’s the golden rule.

Make it, not make it? What’s the difference? Music is a language, it’s a dance of life, and it can be a part of your life without being something that earns.

I wasn’t originally a bass player. I just found out I was needed, because everyone wants to play guitar.
