There was a period of time where I really hated rock music.

I was briefly bitter.

I was raised to think that rock was music for ignorant people who didn't think for themselves.

I feel like the rap metal at the end of the 1990s destroyed rock music for everybody and suddenly everybody felt like they had to apologise for being in rock bands. People suddenly felt bad about wanting to reach massive audiences and the sense of theatre, that we have in our live show, became something to avoid.

I understand how hard rock fans feel inside out, because I was one of those people.

Rock's so good to me. Rock is my child and my grandfather.

The cliched rock life never seemed that cool to me.

I'm hard-pressed to think of a lot of great rock movies.

I got rock in me.

Rock was always part of my heart and soul. But the times just changed and everybody wanted to dance.
