Enema of the State song is kind of like a tattoo, like a moment in time, but it aged well. It's not like one that you're looking at like, Aw, God, I gotta get that s**t removed. It's something we're proud of.

With rock music, it usually revolves around the band. You go in as a band and probably take about a year to record an album. But for a hip-hop song, you can create a track and an idea with verses and choruses in a day, and get three different people on it. It seems like you're able to do more with hip-hop.
Travis Barker
I like Steve Gadd, everything he did with Steely Dan. There's so many. I like everything.
Travis Barker
On tour, you never have a home, you don`t get used to anything, and you`re always super busy.
