'I don't want to grow up,' Tom Waits said it. I live it. I put myself in a position to be a kid as long as I want to. I play loud music and scream for a living.

A couple years ago I was going to back off and actually thought about retiring, but it keeps calling me back, and I'm going to keep going back as long as it calls me. I really think it has something to do with the good vibes that I feel I've spread through my performance and through the time that I've spent with fans.

All I want you to do is rock. That'll be forever, man.

I wouldn't want to say never on anything like that, because it's fun to turn people's heads around with something like that. But we only have about 25 minutes of solid music of our own -- we could pull together a couple of covers or something like that and make a set for someone. If it presents itself, we'd look at it for sure.

I'm busier than a busy person. People aren't scared to play this raucous, harsh music over radio speakers, so I think it's the perfect time to get in with some real serious, heavy bands.

It all has to do with art - writing, painting, things I've done for a long time but just never had enough time to pursue. I have poetry - things that are designed for songs, but they're always poems first.

This is a fantastic opportunity for me to play with guys I've respected for a long time. It gives us a chance to be innovators. This has never been done before. We're going to break new ground musically and on television. The anticipation is building in me every day. This is a super group in the truest sense.
