To stop the flow of music would be like the stopping of time itself, incredible and inconceivable.

The whole problem can be stated quite simply by asking, 'Is there a meaning to music?' My answer would be, 'Yes.' And 'Can you state in so many words what the meaning is?" My answer to that would be, 'No.'

I've got Arabic music in my blood.

Making music has gotten easier; selling it has gotten harder. Making music has been democratized, but the market is in the hands of fascists.

I really like listening to music in my car.

3 Doors Down asked us if we could fill in for them, and we are very happy that we were able to rearrange our schedule to do the show. We apologize to our fans in Portland, but we will be back on the 22nd, and we ask for everyone's understanding. Our thoughts and prayers are with Brad, and we send our best wishes to him for a speedy and complete recovery.
