I used to love Deep Purple and Ian Paice.
I love Tauranga because it's got everything you need within reach. I can go out on my launch, moor it, have a shower, drive home and my hair is still wet. I can drive back out to the hangar to take my helicopter to run the Lambo on the track. The sun shines. The people here accept you.
Ringo is incredible. He's the greatest. Simon Kirke is great as well, so is Ian Paice. All of these British drummers from the ‘60s are great. They were big influences on me.
I was just at home walking around at home, and I started feel, well, just funny. You know how you can feel funny? I had a strange pain in my chest. So my housekeeper took me to the hospital, when they hooked me up and did all these tests turned out I had a big heart attack.
