We did a bunch of these mellow, kind of like sad songs. But when he came in, he said we sounded old. It wasn't about age, but I got was he was saying.

And heaven had wanted one immortal song.

I'm just so grateful that my injuries aren't worse. There will be a lot of rehabilitation and physical therapy, but I'm planning on working hard so the band can get back to writing songs, and then we can get in the studio and record the new album as soon as possible.

Thanks for being nice, ... We really appreciate it.

Those probably aren't the people who are going to buy the new record,

It was so unorganized. ... It just got silly. We would have rather sat on that record for a year and let Geffen put it out.
