Don't try to follow any trends, just concentrate on writing great songs and knowing your instrument. All the other stuff will fall into place.

I don't follow trends. I just do what I like doing.

I'd like to be writing songs for other people - I just like writing songs.

I just had lunch with Slash two days ago. He loves Axl. He holds no grudges towards him. Twenty years of great music wasn't created because of some stupid grudge. That's a shame.

Don't follow trends, start trends.
