I view life as a learning experience. It is not so much all about music; it is about what happens when you are doing the music.

I believe that every person has uniqueness - something that nobody else has.

If everyone would look for that uniqueness then we would have a very colorful world.

I play with feeling so I need to hear what is coming out of the amplifier to inspire me; I don't just play mechanically. I need to hear what I am doing in order to create the next note. If I don't hear it then I can't feed myself.

In order to get somewhere in life, you need to have a vision. The vision brings you to the table. Without a vision, you just do what everybody else does and you are just there.

I have made stage adjustments which allow me to hear myself better onstage so that has made playing live much more enjoyable.
