It's Very Hard To Tour.

I'm Really Lucky I'm Still Around. Everybody Expected Me To Die Next... But It Was Always Someone Else Instead Of Me.

When I Got Into Rap I Didn't Exactly Win Any Popularity Contests. I Called Myself Dee Dee King, After B.b. King, To The Total Dismay Of My Fellow Ramones.

Progression Is Important. I'm Always Going To Play Music In The General Vein Of Rock'n'roll, But When I Started I Was Very Much Associated With The West Coast Lo-fi Thing And I Didn't Want To Get Anchored In With Anything That Was Just In Vogue For The Time Being.

All Of My Favorite Records Have Vocals High In The Mix, Even If It's Music That Wasn't Necessarily Mainstream.

I'd Like To Thank Myself, And Congratulate Myself, And Give Myself A Big Pat On The Back.
