Quotes

Chris: I wear a lot of second hand clothes unless I have a concert and then I wear beaded and sequined second hand clothes. No stylist dresses me although I do have a woman that assists me with the buttons. (edit)
Chris: I don't smoke, I don't do drugs, never have - I'd much prefer to work out or go surfing or chase women or hang out and play guitar with my friends. Everyone else wants to buy a huge TV. When I'm 85 and the only thing I can move is my thumb, then I'll get one of those big screens. You know they halve your sex life - seriously, there's been a study!" (edit)
Chris: I don't do drugs. They take away from your innate ability to chase women. (edit)
