Originally, I Wanted To Call The Band

Originally, I Wanted To Call The Band 'guns 'n Robots.' I Still Believe That If We Had Just Called Ourselves 'guns 'n Robots' We'd Still Be Together.

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 Was Never Into Hanging Out On The Sunset Strip. When It Came To Guns N' Roses And The Scene That Was Going On Then, That Was Something We Pretty Much Hated. That Was What We Had To Scratch And Claw Through, And As Soon As We Got Established Enough To Leave, We Never Went Back.

But If I Was Still Trying To Be In Guns N' Roses While I Wasn't In The Band... I Wouldn't Want To Maintain An Image Like That.

Being A Rockstar Is The Intersection Of Who You Are And Who You Want To Be.
