Rock will never be dead for me. Do I like a lot of what I hear on rock music radio? No, not for the most part. I'm not a fan of the regurgitated Pearl Jam and Nickelback crap that's the biggest thing in the Midwest. There isn't that big of a market for rock anymore. Every once in a while something happens and you like it.

You know, rock stardom... I have a hard time discussing that because I don't really accept it. It's not really that tangible.

Eddie Vedder
Pearl Jam
