And there was a guitar right next to me.

And, you know, I only knew two chords, but I picked up the guitar and I started to strum.

And I was thinking, this is cool, man.

I am like jamming with the Allman Brothers band.

And it was like...

Hands appeared kind of behind me and lifted the guitar out of my hands, almost like a hand from heaven is just coming to relinquish the guitar from my grasp.

And I just felt like, oh, that's cool.

I'm in heaven and there goes the guitar now.

It's like, don't jam with the Allman Brothers band, particularly when you only know two chords.

I thought that was the most gentle way to teach me a lesson early on.

Yeah, it was a cover story in Rolling Stone.

It was also the Playboy interview.

And I did some other stories for Cream and some other publications.

It was a David Bowie factory I had going for a while because he wasn't talking to anybody else.

Life puts you at a crossroads and you go one way and it turns into 18 months with David Bowie.

I had no assignment.

He said to me, hold up a mirror to me.

I want to see what you show me.

So like spend some time around me.

Ask me anything you want.
