I get as much fan mail today and sign as many autographs as I did when I played. It's mind-boggling to a certain degree.
Democracy in the studio is overrated. What you wind up getting is compromise on everybody's part, which means that nobody has their way, and that means nobody wins, including the fans.
It was so much easier to connect with my fans when I was smaller. I could answer every message, and I enjoyed doing that.
I wish they'd shut the gates, and let us play ball with no press and no fans.
I call it fan fatigue. I went to see Bob Dylan last year, who I think is absolutely incredible, but he suffers from his audience.
I've always been a fan of Westerns, but my favorite kind of Westerns mostly were Sam Peckinpah's Westerns, and they mainly took place in the West that was changing.
If they do something like that, maybe a Freddy Krueger fan, a girl, a really sick goth girl starts killing kids herself and Freddy has to put a stop to it, or they have to fight it out.
I draw a younger crowd who can relate to me. Some of the girl fans will message me online, saying, 'You're the reason I watch golf.'
I've always had people come up to me to say that they admire the way I play, and then they tell me they're not United fans. That's always been nice.
Well, you know, we all grew up as 'Star Wars' fans.
The city of Wildwood has been fantastic in helping us and supporting this event. This is a small way of the Soul saying thanks to our fans.
For my 'Perfect Chemistry' series, I did movie-style book trailers, and my fans went crazy for them.
Fans always say they laughed and they cried while reading my books. And I tell them that I laughed and cried while writing them.
I'm such a fan of Daniel Waters, who wrote the script, and also Mark Waters, his brother, who directed. 'Vampire Academy' has, I think, an iconic director.
I actually got an initial sense of how big 'Outlander' was going to be on Twitter. We're all on there to help promote the show and also interact with the fans.
I had a solo career before Van Halen. My fan base filtered through Van Halen with me and came right on out the other side with me.
I definitely liked the Muppets. I definitely liked Yoda in 'Empire Strikes Back' and Chewbacca. I don't know if I was a fan of puppets or those, like, specific characters.
Even before coming into the industry, I was a big fan of Motown, the Jackson 5, Gladys Knight, the Temptations, Diana Ross and The Supremes.
We can make fun of hockey fans, but someone who enjoys Homer is indulging the same kind of vicarious bloodlust.
Really, if I'm honest, sci-fi is where my sensibility instinctively goes - I'm a big comic-book fan.
I'm probably not as big of a hip-hop fan as people may think. I'm not up on all the artists and know all their stuff.
