For some reason at 12 or 13, I just heard Gerry Milligan and fell in love with that, whatever it was called.

I wanted to play drums because I fell in love with the glitter and the lights, but it wasn't about adulation. It was being up there playing.

I fell in love for the right reason. I fell in love unconditionally.

I hate leaving home. I love what I do, but I'd love to go home every night.

I didn't know what the hell Charlie Parker was playing... I just liked the way he played.

We always work at least a month to six weeks before we go on the road, usually for something like eight to 12 hours a night. It took six weeks to do it this time. We just play virtually everything we know.
