I've had some lovely extraordinary experiences on New Year's Eve.

I thought I'd live to a ripe old age, because I always felt there was a lot to do. I had a driven feeling. I always thought in the present.

I turned on VH1 this morning just to get a little warm-up before I came over here, and I think it's just terrific. There's so much great stuff: diverse and wonderful music, good performances, great looking girls, great videos, the whole thing.

It's amazing to me to see how bands evolve and how they take all their influences and come up with their own sound.

Music is wonderful. Especially if there's some kind of content to it.

I'm a culture vulture, and I just want to experience it all.

I guess people assume I have some sort of totally magical life, but I'm a working musician, fortunately. I've worked on my craft, and I'm very fortunate I've been able to survive in a very competitive industry and enjoy my success. It's not easy.

But computers have changed the world for everyone, so there will be some way of working it out.
