We invited about ten dirt jumpers from the States and Canada and there were five rock bands playing on the main stage. You could watch the concert, the dirt jumps and the cross country from one spot. The announcer was always talking about everything, talking about the current standing in the race or explaining the tricks, introducing the bands.

[Music is a fashion industry. Everyone at some point goes out of fashion.] For rock bands there's always someone there to tell you that it's not over, ... Even if the record is not selling someone will tell you the next one will, or it was the producer's fault or the record company. It was always someone else. And there's any number of people who will tell you how great you are in spite of overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

We've been putting on the race for three years. Every year, we try to make it better, try to make it more interesting.

All great rock bands have a little dirt in their faces.

I have had success throughout the years. Some of the hard rock bands today don't have the history that I have.

A lot of rock bands are truly a legend in their own minds.
