Growing up in the '70s, it was only a few years before that when men started to grow their hair long. And in the '70s, people were pushing the envelope a little farther, with men having even more style and piercing both their ears and wearing makeup.

We have a growing new fan base, and we wanted to get out now, and play now, and the timing was right.

Who's the new Ramones, who's the new Guns 'N Roses, who's the new Motley Crue, who's the new Black Sabbath? They're coming, they're on the street, they're 16, 17 years old.

I never understood bands saying Nirvana had anything to do with derailing their career. Maybe those bands didn't have the goods.

The values, the programs, the formula, the determination, and the patriotism responsible for America's past success are still here to be tapped.

I never focus on success; I only focus on listening to my online community and being consistent.

Honeymoons are great, but they don't last. And I think the same is true with success on the screen - today, I am all over the place; tomorrow, I may be gone - I may have to make room for someone else. So why make a big song and dance about it all?

People need to realise what real happiness and success is, because success as an actor is fleeting. You can be up there one day and gone the next.
