I thought it was too 'glam rock' to practice. The problem is that now I'm a pretty bad guitar player.

When people say 'stadium songs,' it's really negative. All the festival headliners, I've realised, are usually the worst bands.

I always considered technical musicianship as something you should be ashamed of - I don't know why.

I am convinced that the reason so many fans leave Dodger Stadium after the seventh inning is that they become bored.

I just had an idea that went right over my head.

That whole lifestyle - make a record, do a tour: I know how to do that. It doesn't interest me.
