Quotations "As teenagers, we listened to Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin on BBC radio, and then they became a school for us. We were inspired by their music, and we started playing rock.

A year later, we won the music festival called "Golden Autumn" with this song, and it all started with that."

"Those who know me well are aware of that I always say I will never change rock. I feel rock, rock is the music of freedom, rebellion. It is my music."
