I love playing. If it was down to just that, it would be utopia.

I know where I'm going musically. I can see my pattern and I'm going much slower than I thought I'd be going.

I don't know whether I'll reach 40. I don't know whether I'll reach 35. I can't be sure about that. I am bloody serious. I am very, very serious. I didn't think I'd make 30.

I had another idea of getting a traveling medicine wagon with a dropdown side and traveling around England. That might sound crazy to you, but over there it's so rural you can do it. Just drop down the side and play through big battery amps and mixers and it can all be as temporary or as permanent as I want it to be.

You know what you can gain when you sit down with the Moroccans. As a person and as a musician. That's how you grow.

No. I usually rest in my satin-lined coffin, actually. I'm not allowed out in daylight hours.

My finger picking is sort of a cross between Pete Seeger, Earl Scruggs, and total incompetence.
Jimmy Page
Image
I'm at my best when I'm exhausted and under pressure.

I may not believe in myself, but I believe in what I'm doing.

I think it's time to travel, start gathering some real right-in-there experiences with street musicians around the world.

But if you want me to knock Kingdom Come, all I will say is that I heard the guitarist said he'd never heard my playing, and I'd defy any guitarist in American not to have heard Led Zeppelin.
