I was playing in other rock bands. Any of those bands didn't last long.

I got fed up with being in bands. I spent a couple of years touring the country in a smoked filled band, doing lots of drugs and being really unhealthy.

I'm glad I was never in a band.

I'm not into bands for the sake of being into bands. I've grown past that. There was a time in my life when I was that guy.

I wasn't in a lot of rock and roll bands. I was in jug bands and things when I was in school.

Even by rock star standards, I was pretty awful.

In the late summer of 1986, the band I had been in for five years stopped playing. Suddenly, I was on my own. This new state of bandlessness was, at first, traumatic. When your group breaks up, a lot of broken parts hit the ground.

I was kind of bored playing drums in a band. Which was depressing, because playing in the band was kind of a golden ticket.

My first audition was the worst I have ever done, ever.
