„All the drinking and all the other junk that I was stuck in… It was so predictable. So boring. I wake up the next day - somewhere, in some bed, I don't know who this person is next to me… and I'm drunk, competely hung over and have a show to do. The result is the same… When life now is pretty… exciting. You don't know what's gonna happen.“
