I love drums and still play frequently.

I got my first set of drums when I was around 3. I went from band to marching band to Latin jazz band - it's like riding a bike.

Not really, drums found me, I just liked music, all kinds of music.

It's been years and years and years I've been playing the drums, and they're still a challenge. I still enjoy using drumsticks and a snare drum.

I'm very influenced by jazz drummers. I always liked drummers like Roger Taylor, Keith Moon, Ian Paice, John Densmore. I just learned from playing to those drummers.

I'm endorsed by Yamaha. I represent Yamaha, and I really like the way that piano handles and capacitates the force that I put into it without losing the shape of the sound and the contour, and it really holds up well.

Nobody seems to play Yamaha electrics, but it's the best guitar I own.

Drums were my first instrument.

I like drums, really, if they're under control.
