When they come here, the English make a choice: New York or L.A. L.A. suited me better, I just feel comfortable here.

My soul is that of a drummer.... I didn't do it to become rich and famous. I did it because it was the love of my life.

Every time, my syncopation is different, because I can never play the same fill twice. I just can't, never have been able to. Even as a Beatle, they'd say, 'Oh, double-track that.' I don't know how you do that, because when I'm in a fill I'm sort of this blackout, just this pure me coming out and I can't pure me the same, twice. So, that's that.

Drumming is my middle name.

I love being in a band. I love playing with other human beings. I've never practiced drums unless there was another human being in the room.

I never studied anything, really. I didn't study the drums. I joined bands and made all the mistakes onstage.
