“'Keep your head down at school.' Those are sage words from my dad. They kept me in check for years.”

I did rebel. I was the rebel in my family, because my dad wanted me to go and just travel with him.
It was a relief to be able to do my own band, because I was very responsible for all this amazing music I didn't want to mess up before.
I never really saw my dad around when the Iron Maiden and the AC/DC were playing. But he knew what I was doing. I was just absorbing music. So he just kind of left me to my own devices.
I did Albert Hall, I got to play the Hall of Fame with Prince. So I've done that kind of stuff for ages. It wasn't until after we finished working on Brainwash, my dad's album after he died, then it was like 'That phase is over in my life now, now we can get on with our music, with our band.'
