Yep.

Yeah, he's the whole reason I'm sitting here.

He hijacked me from my art career.

So many people innately wanted to say so blindly, well, you know, Paul would want you to go on.

And I wouldn't say much.

And then finally I had enough.

And I'm like, did anyone think that maybe I might not want to go on without my friend?

And just to be honest, sitting here today, man, I mean, you know, I don't know how much more longer I have because it's just the new guys, they're not new guys.

They're people.

They're my friends, and I got them in.

And they're great.

They're wonderful.

I love them.

And we have such a great time, and good things are happening.

If it's no better than writing that song in a basement, it's certainly no better without one of my best friends who was the genius.

Him and Joey, they're two of the greatest hard rock writers of all time.

And here I am, you know, the art guy, you know, and probably hate it the most because I have to do hard things.

I have to be part of hard decisions.

And

I'm okay with doing that because I'm not gonna live lies.
