"Last night was a weird one. After Leno [that is, after appearing on
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (1992), we went to this bar to see a
comedy 1980s hair metal band from L.A. called "Metal School". The singer
starts ranting about how they're "Bringing metal back to MTV!" and
saying things like, "Aren't you tired of turning on MTV and seeing
bands like
Hoobastank!" It got worse from there. He actually pointed me
out. But I was laughing. I got up on stage and we did 'Ain't Talking
'Bout Love' from
Van Halen" [The Toronto Sun, June 18, 2004].
