I'm sober, and I'm sick. I'm sick in the head. And all that support and all that great stuff around me allows my artistic side to be even more demented.
We go to do the Billboard Music Awards to be a presenter, and we walk on stage, and we get a standing ovation from the industry.
And there's one thing that we all agree on in the band, which is: It's more important to have a great record than to rush getting it out.
And, you know, there's a brutality to us when we're together,
Vince has said over and over, you know, rock 'n' roll never really goes away,
Vince feels horrible, ... He wanted to finish the show but I think it's better he didn't, in the big picture. From all four of us, we're very sorry and will be back to Atlanta. No shows will be canceled.
We just didn't give a f?-. We did things our way, and we had a hell of a good time doing it.
We are from Hollywood, you know that's where we started.
You know, we've all talked about how mostly, more than anything, we just really wanted to have a good time. And I think that, you know, this tour has really turned out to be a lot of fun for us as band members and as friends. You know, we've been friends for forever.
When I first started seeing it come together, I was just blown away.
I'd like to respond to rumors that I died yesterday ... I mean, c'mon, be patient! My day will come but it hasn't yet!
We fit in there with all the dead movie stars.
You can't do this, you can't take a picture of someone who has built their image up, I don't care who it is. You can't use that for your business.
We had sort of Spinal Tap moment in Europe . . . when I caught on fire. Vince almost had to stop singing, he was laughing so hard.
