I'm never quite as excited as people think because with my voice, when I shout, I squeak.

I'm naturally a loud person. It can be a bit overpowering.

When I plug in my guitar and play it really loud, loud enough to deafen most people, that's my shot of adrenaline, and there's nothing like it. That's what it's always been for me - to be the flame the tribe dances around.

If it's just screaming - and I know this sounds so ridiculous - that gets old. But sometimes when there's literal chaos, it's like being in a war zone, and that's kind of exciting. You're just running through the crowd of people chasing after you and no one knows what's going on.

I try to be as quiet as I can at the plate, but still aggressive.

When I'm not excited, it makes acting very hard for me.

Something that I think I figured out slowly was if you're playing a show and there's a chatter or there is, you know, a lot of noise - people talking or something - I was never the one whose instinct was to try to be louder than them.

I'm a screamer and a yeller. When I want something, all I do is yell, and I get responses.

In real life, I tend to yell at people a lot. Not because I'm bossy or mean, but because I'm frustrated.

I'm an old dog; I don't get too excited. I don't get caught up in all the mass hysteria.
