My Dad Is A Huge Rock And

When I Was A Kid, A Lot Of My Parents' Friends Were In The Music Business. In The Late '60s And Early '70s - All The Way Through The '70s, Actually - A Lot Of The Bands That Were Around Had Kids At A Very Young Age. So They Were All Working On That Concept Way Early On. And I Figured If They Can Do It, I Could Do It, Too.

The Era Itself Has Nothing To Do With Anything. We Weren't Really Attached To That At All. I Just Saw This Thing Where They Had A Poison Concert On Vh1, And To Me, That Is Being Attached To An Era.

I Am Married And I Have Two Kids Now, And I Love Them All To Death. So I Am Trying To Put All That Together And Maintain The Same Pace I've Been Keeping. But Really, I Relish What We Do. A Year And A Half Sounds Like A Cakewalk To Me.

I Got The Name Slash Because I Used To Work In A Grocery Store And I Was In Charge Of Reducing Prices For Really Big Sales.

When It Comes To Actually Writing, I Like To Write In A Full Room With The Amps Blasting, And A Big Drum Set.
