I love those Keith Richards solo records, but it's not the Rolling Stones.
I know when I wear a Led Zeppelin shirt, I am happy to put that Led Zeppelin shirt on. It's not, 'Well, they kind of suck.'
Los Angeles has been my home since the days even before Motley Crue, so I am beyond excited that 'The Side Show' has found a home on 98.7 FM. This is the station I listen to - my friends listen to it, my family listens to it. It's the station I wanted to be on, and I'm psyched to get started.
My studio, nicknamed 'Funny Farm,' is in a hidden location. It's very private. Not only do I create my photography there, but it is also where I write my books and create music.
I forgive my mom for being a psycho and my dad for being a loser.
As a lyricist, I'm really trying to raise my level of quality.
The industry is a menace to artists.
I never understood the hit-single, quick-success, get-airplay mentality.
I sport a cave-man mentality.
The other day I went to a movie with some friends, and they were like, 'Let's look it up on the Internet and see what people are saying,' and I was like, 'Man, that's messed up.'
How lucky can one guy get? I was a runaway, and then I was in one of the biggest bands in the world. I've sold out every arena. I've sold millions and millions of records.
The thing is that I've known the guys from Motley Crue longer than just about everybody.
Do I think anything I ever do will be as big as Motley Crue? It's impossible.
What's scummy about the music industry is that everybody loves you when you're dead.
In the end, the whole Internet thing kills me, because you can use it as a positive thing or you can read into all the negativity. And I think you've gotta put out positive energy, put out cool viral stuff, and then just stay out of people's opinions.
For me, to turn people on to new music, on to things that are going on in the world, is important.
I never understood bands saying Nirvana had anything to do with derailing their career. Maybe those bands didn't have the goods.
There's no difference if you're a supermodel or if you've lost both your legs. What are you doing that's beautiful or ugly on the inside?
I've always had an eye for the oddities in life.
When Ozzy calls and asks you to go on tour, you say, 'When do I start?'
