I said the same things to Axl [Rose] that everyone said to me when me and Joe Perry were fighting.
Having loved the Stones all the time I was growing up, I wasn't about to see them go and split up. It got very close to it in the 80s, when Mick thought that Keith hated him and vice versa.
They hated Sammy Hagar for 12 years and they hate him to this day.
I really don't like it when members of bands slag each other off in the press. If you've got a problem, you should sort it out without going public.
Dave thought he was bigger than Van Halen the band. So there was this catfight going on for 10 years.
I don't know where people get the idea that every Wilco record is supposed to have drama. OK, I guess historically speaking we've had our fair share of ups and downs.
I was the one that allegedly "quit and joined my old band." That wasn't true. But it was said so matter-of-factly on the Internet that the guys weren't really sure what I was up to.
And then it got even worse, I mean, a few people fell by the wayside within hours. Nick Lowe was in it for about 5 hours I think, he was expelled for going to bed.
Every time I see a story about the Go-Go's, it sounds like a gossip column about our health or our love life.
There's trials and tribulations in a band.
A lot of bands have an unfortunate past; we've dodged a lot of bullets when it comes to that.
The lyrics to the single 'Survivor' are Destiny's Child's story, because we've been through a lot, ... We went through our drama with the members ... Any complications we've had in our 10-year period of time have made us closer and tighter and better.
When we were on the road, I found out that my greatest hits album went Gold. They freaked out. Things really came to a head when we started arguing about a Van Halen greatest hits package.
I think we had kind of a die-hard fan base when it came out, but a lot of the people were angry with Motley for getting rid of Vince, or Vince leaving or whatever happened.
