I Boil The Strings So They Stretch.

Before The Operation On My Left Hand I Wasn't Able To Stretch My Fingers Open All The Way. I've Never Had Very Big Hands, But I Could Do The Splits With Them. Eventually I Couldn't Any More. I Had A Twisted Tendon In My Little Finger That Prevented Me From Being Able To Stretch.

Rock & Roll Is Feeling, And After You Know Most Of The Basics ... Chords, Rhythm, Scales And Bends ... Getting That Feeling Is Just About The Most Important Aspect Of Playing Guitar

I've Had A Hip Replacement, I've Beaten Cancer, I Had My Hand Operation, And I Stopped Drinking. Something Inside Of Me Just Went, 'i'm Done.'

David Lee Roth Had The Idea That If You Covered A Successful Song, You Were Half Way Home. C'mon - Van Halen Doing 'dancing In The Streets'? It Was Stupid. I Started Feeling Like I Would Rather Bomb Playing My Own Songs Than Be Successful Playing Someone Else's Music.

We're Musicians. We Make Music For A Living. It's That Simple. Nothing Else Matters.
