The closest things to an influence would be people like Charlie Watts or Al Jackson. But I didn't really listen to drummers; I basically played what I thought was needed for the Ramones.
Were the Rolling Stones good looking? Well, Jagger was, but the rest of the dudes? Maybe not so much.
I believe the Rolling Stones wanted to play in Golden Gate Park.
You have the sun, you have the moon, you have the air that you breathe - and you have the Rolling Stones!
I was a massive Rolling Stones fan, and I wanted to play music like... they do... were doing.
But, you know, the Stones were my opening act in the Sixties. I loved those British guys, the way they just stood there and shook their hair.
The only band that we have never played with but have always wanted to is the Rolling Stones.
I dare anyone to play like Charlie Watts.
You've got the sun, you've got the moon, and you've got the Rolling Stones.
The Stones also still have a huge following. Mick Jagger leaps around like a crazy dude. And Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts are playing great too.
