I Don't Really Listen To Music.

I Don't Want To Preach, But I Really Think The Rudiments Are Very Important To Developing Your Drumming Skills. Many Of The Patterns I've Recorded Came From Things Like Paradiddles, Flam Paradiddles, Flam Triplets... They Might Be Boring To Sit Down And Practice, But Not When You Apply Them To The Drums.

When Children See Michael Jackson They See A Human Being. When Adults See Him They See Money.

Everything Has Added Up To A Load That I'm Getting Tired Of Carrying. It's Gotten So Complicated. It's The Three Failed Marriages, And Having Kids That Grew Up Without Me, And It's The Personal Criticism, Of Being Mr. Nice Guy, Or Of Divorcing My Wife By Fax, All That Stuff, The Journalism, Some Of Which I Find Insulting.

I Just Figured If I'm Going To Call Myself A Songwriter Throughout My Life, Then Writing For Most Genres Of Music Is Something I Should At Least Attempt.

Put Your Faith In What You Most Believe In.
