I've been doing instrumental records now for a long time and built up this little fan base, which is worldwide, and it's incredible how big it's gotten. People really enjoy these records.

I know singers; I've worked with some of the greatest singers in the world.

I think I'm always writing, and I'm always working, and I'm always trying to be creative. It's just something that I do all the time. I watch TV, and I'll play guitar.

I'm always playing guitar.

I'm always happy with a guitar in my hand.

I love talking to people, and I'll listen to what they have to say, and if they have ideas or something like that, I'll put you to work.

I want to make money playing guitar.

I wanted to do this so badly, to be a successful musician.

Sometimes if you're in the studio for a very long time, you want to get out and play live shows and vice versa.

It's always good to go outside of your comfort zone.

I can get inspired, like anyone, from movies or music or TV or a certain way people think.

I would definitely say Zombie has been the best time I've ever had. It is just so great and so fun because, you know, we all get along so well, and, you know, it's just like, everybody, we're just all friends here, and we're just having a really, really, really great time.

How it's been with me, it doesn't really matter what kind of music it is as long as it's good and catchy and I enjoy it. That's why I know all these different styles of music, just because it's fun. Whatever is good, I like it.

'This Is My Rifle' is a kind of tribute to Al Di Meola.

I like records that are all over the place. That's why I think my favorite Beatles record was always 'The White Album.'

I've been playing live since I was in sixth grade.

'Hee Haw' was a huge influence on me.

I was such a sponge with music.

Inspiration is one of my favorite things. That's all I want to do - I want to inspire people.

Slayer just goes from generation to generation to generation, because it's just so great.

I'd love to work with Prince. He's such an amazing musician.

Personally, I like records that are very varied in sound. Not just like, 'Oh, here's 12 super heavy tracks,' and they're all the same tempo.

I'm always up early. I have so much to do, it's unbelievable how much I have to do in a day. So I have to get at 7 o'clock every morning, and I go to bed at midnight. You know, and I'm just going that whole time.

I just love music and great guitar players.
