When I first started all this, it was mostly music fans that came along, Stones fans. But now, I'm being taken seriously. I've got highfalutin' art collectors and everything!
It's taken folk a while to come around, hasn't it? Even the boys in the band weren't too sure about the whole art thing. They just wanted me to concentrate on the music. But they respect it now.
When I'm left on my own I'm my own worst enemy.
When I first saw Jo, I said boom, that was it, because I'm a one-woman man.
What can I say, I'm an alcoholic. It's what I do.
We got touring with the Stones, and people were trying to keep up with Keith. He's like a human machine with a constitution of iron, and they all thought they could do the same.
They say you can smoke 400 cigs a day and drink 20 cups of coffee, but you can't have a line or a drink again.
People often get the wrong impression of Mick. The clever businessman is just one side of Mick. The other side is the same as the rest of us, a true rocker!
My real self is probably more creative and more frightening than any sort of drink or drug-induced state.
Mick says, Would you join the band? I say to him, Mick, you know I'd be there in a New York minute.
Mick has expressed an interest in coming to the gallery tonight because he's seen me behaving myself lately. He is being much more supportive, which is nice.
Let's face it: I paint well. I know it, you know it. There's no arguing really, is there?
I like it when journalists are nice to me, and it's happening more and more.
I just think my body can't handle it any more. I did try a little drink a while back, and I was actually physically ill. I went into an immediate depression, and felt awful, just dreadful. So that's it. I'm over it now.
I heard this massive thud. I spun around, and there Keith was, on the ground. He'd cut his gums up on impact, he was very bloody, and clutching his head. I think it was a kind of wake-up call for him.
I go off into Dublin and two days later I'm spotted walking by the Liffey with a whole bunch of new friends.
I can't be left unsupervised.
I always want to rock.
All of us can't wait to get out there whatever way.
You don't make solo albums to have hits.
