Around the 21:30 mark, he talks about his Rickenbacker bass and how he stopped using it because the Ric replacement pickups were bad. Any idea what he is talking about ? Last time I saw him live, with The Baseball Project, he was playing a modern Ric bass.

I watched this and enjoyed it.

I liked how he openly admired his bandmates in this interview. Lots of other rock stars have a hard time bringing themselves to say a nice thing about them, especially if they've been together a long time.

Also got a kick out the aircraft reference - both fixed wing and rotary!
