"I started playing when I was five. My parents bought me this toy drum kit and there's a picture that my mom has blown up and framed. It's pretty excellent. I'm behind this giant bass drum (which actually probably wasn't really that big) and you can just see my head above it. I've got these giant headphones on from my dad, covering my entire head. I'm just sitting there. I'm five years old."
"My first band was called Turning Trix. T-R-I-X. We were playing this teen club, 18 or under. My big thing is I would play a drum solo in the middle of the set. And I would get up on the rack and walk around and pound on the toms. It was like this big moment. And I got out there and everyone was cheering, and I'm walking around, and I slipped and fell between the bass drums and got stuck. I couldn't get up! The guitar player had to come and move one of the drums so I could sit up. In front of my whole high school!"
