I consider everything I compose a gift. |
I've gone through hell and back. |
I'm not a rich man, and Greg Lake is certainly not. I don't know how he can survive. I don't know how he can be that suicidal. But having said that, I'd love to be there to help Greg. |
I've broken my nose, I've broken ribs. You name it. In fact, we just got back from South America, and I fell over a monitor speaker on the stage and almost ended up in the front row of the audience. I managed to sprain my wrist on that one but luckily nothing was broken. |
If they want a photograph, then just take it. |
At the Isle of Wight, the sound went out and kind of kept on going. And I wasn't... when I came off stage I was kind of unhappy about how we had played. But now, I listen back to those recordings and it's not bad. |
We manage to bounce ideas off one another. Every band fights, but at the end of the day, we're very positive about the way we fight. At least we come out with a result. |
My sons are into German music, but they are into all kinds of music. |
If you're a good parent, see the changes that are happening in your kids. |
We'll be presenting a broad spectrum of the music and looking at how the younger guys can carry it on. |
I had written movie scores, television series, played with other people. Carl had done the same with Asia, with other bands, everything. We weren't about to entrust Greg automatically with a production credit. |
The best thing about this band is I'm the leader! |
If it wasn't good, I wouldn't be going back out on tour. |
I don't care who I play to, as long as they enjoy listening to what I play. |
Next year I'm going to be a guesting soloist with orchestras all over Europe, to start off with. |
I remember that I used to mix with my friends who had brothers and sisters. I was an only child. |
Find a good teacher, as I found for my sons. I feel the worst thing you can do is to try and teach your own children yourself, because there is a natural rebellion that occurs. |
There's a clip where he had someone miming me running around from keyboard to keyboard. Oh dear, I am sure a lot of people didn't know what he was going on about. |
We can all put weight on or lose weight. |
I guess when Rick is finished with his Journey to the Centre of the Earth, then we might have a go at something. We'd like to, we're open to it, and we've been talking about it. |
