Just walk beside me and be my friend."

"If you wind up with a boring, miserable life because you listened to your mom, your dad, your teacher, your priest or some guy on TV telling you how to do your ****, then YOU DESERVE IT."

"For the record, folks; I never took a **** on stage and the closest I ever came to eating **** anywhere was at a Holiday Inn buffet in Fayetteville, North Carolina, in 1973."

"I was in the motel one night practicing in my room and this dude stuck his head in the door and said, 'Hey-y man, I thought I heard something going on in here.'
It was Jimi Hendrix. I was speechless. I couldn't move.
He took my guitar away and lay down across the bed with his head dangling towards the floor, looking at the ceiling.
He'd run off this incredible line and then look up at me and said, (in Hendrix space-drawl tones) 'Say, man, c'n you do that?'
Then he'd laugh and play some more. After that he started teaching me. I learned a lot from him."

Billy Gibbons


Billy and some friends spent time trekking through Nepal, searching for hidden, exotic musical instruments.
Before long, this adventure turned into Billy searching for the Yeti.

"I had an encounter with something up there. I don't know what it was, but I wrote a song about it called (I Wouldn't Touch It With A) Ten Foot Pole"
