The drive to create music that is pure is my highest priority. Sometimes I'll get extremely technical, and other times I'll just kind of go with the gods of music.

Well, I don't even know how to drive in this life, so I'm pretty far from ever having the life of being a stuntdouble. I liked- I had an Evil Knievel doll when i was a kid, that's about it!

In the Chili Peppers, I'm a part of that world in a pretty big world and that's just the way it is.

Rock guitarists usually do not wish to think trains of thought about anything but their own guitar playing during a long solo, and I could not play this way if I were not able to divide my attention between my ever changing musical environment and my instrument itself.

I combine aspects of many styles of music and create my own musical forms by way of electronic instruments.

I feel like I'd like to continue putting out records and start putting them out more rapidly than I have until now and for me if I can keep selling the records to the fans that already like me that's fine.

I consider my music to be Progressive Synth Pop, which says nothing about what it sounds like, but does describe my basic approach.

Pagers are my life--I try to get them in to our music as much as possible.
