It didn't go smoothly; it was the most contentious thing I've ever done.

I think I'm a good dad. It's hard. Ultimately, it's our kids that have the final word. So we'll have to ask them.

Rock and Roll Over' was the first Kiss album I heard, but I was totally oblivious to their whole image and the makeup and all that. I was so out of touch with the wider world.

I was fixated on Prince's 'Black Album' for a long time.

I really don't need to suffer. I can really become a happy person and still make good music - in fact, better music.

I really want to disappear, grow a beard, not talk to anyone, not make any friends... I just want to disappear and study.
