We just do what we always do. We play shows and go home and rest and then play more shows.

It's nice when people are happy to hear that you're still alive, rather than feeling like Oh, finally he's dead?

A lot of the records you buy, there's nothing you can hold in your hand, it's all 1′s and 0′s, this digital cloud floating in the ether, but with analog albums, you can hold it in your hand.

The fact that I'm virtually deaf. Any woman who's going to date a rock musician has to be prepared to repeat herself every 10 seconds. My wife asks me where we should go for dinner and it sounds like the schoolteacher from Charlie Brown.

What I really miss these days in music - is the music. I prefer to listen to melodies and songs, not just sounds.

Wow, I get to wake up again? Ok. You have to make good with what you've got.

There's poetry in being the band that can sell out Wembley but also makes a record in a garage. I don't like doing what people expect me to do.

I think that if you're passionate about something and you're driven and you're focused, then you can pretty much do anything that you want to do in life.

I don't want to say that most rock bands live these formulaic biography existences - but they kinda do. There's always a divorce. There's always an OD. There's always a bad business manager.

That’s one of the great things about music. You can sing a song to 85,000 people and they’ll sing it back for 85,000 different reasons.
