I like to listen the blues and some classical.
The groupies are far more real now than there were then.

The four of us couldn’t have made a record with the time left over when we were shooting the show. We were on stage from 7.30 in the morning ’til 7 at night. Later on, when there was a break from filming, and we were sick of doing it the old way.
