First and foremost I am a drummer. After that, I'm other things... But I didn't play drums to make money.

I've never been able to sit round on my own and play drums, practice in the back room, never been able to. I've always played with other musicians. It's how I play, there's no joy for me in playing on my own, bashing away. I need a bass, a piano, guitar, whatever, and then I can play.

I do play drums when I'm on tour.

I used to play drums when I was a kid, play the trombone.

I never studied anything, really. I didn't study the drums. I joined bands and made all the mistakes onstage.
