They should never have to hire anybody from outside for big jobs in Canada. It's weird thinking, ... Keep the money in the country if you can. Canada has got the acts that can do the job in any vein.

I hope the Canada Pops can play in E and A. I do 'Forty Days' and 'Bo Diddley'. I don't change songs, just bands.

I spent ninety percent of my money on wine, women and song and just wasted the other ten percent.

A good band is like a team. You want to have the right balance. It's not always the best people you need, but the right ones for the job.

Wherever there are rock 'n' rollers, we'll play. That's what we've been doing for more than 30 years - rock 'n' roll. It's made me everything from an honorary mayor to honorary member of a motorcycle gang.

I am a cross between Carl Perkins and Led Zeppelin.
