These friendships are so beautiful, they’re all around the world, they’re with people that are really interesting and unique. A couple of days before that I saw Cristina from Lacuna Coil in Milan. The day before that, Arch Enemy were there. Yesterday we were in Spain hanging out with the guys from UFO who were a band I loved when I was a kid. Some people in thrash metal can’t be happy because they want to be angry, that gets them off. I just go out and play, be the best guy I can be, and try not to piss people off in the process. I wanted to be understood, but now I’ve got to this point where I don’t worry about it because I’m not going to change anybody’s mind. “There’s a lot of people who don’t like me because of who they think I am, because they don’t know me, and that used to really bug me. Between the band I’m in now and the band I founded before, the two of us have sold a combined nearly 80 million records from my music. I have a very successful band, I’ve had a great career. “I see myself fitting very comfortably in the centre of the roof ha ha! I don’t feel like I need to walk around the edge any more to get attention, I’m happy with who I am. Where do you see yourself in the world of metal? You’ve been doing this almost your entire life.
