"My musical tastes - I'm always searching for new things. I know a lot of people say they listen to e..." — Lzzy Hale

Over the years, it's funny: my guys will tell you and anyone that I have a problem not giving 100 percent. Because there are some nights where I probably shouldn't actually say everything or do everything I think I should do.

I'm so honored that there are people, peers, that I'm inspired by and looked up to for years and actually want me to do my thing with them. It's quite the honor, and it's been wonderful to see everybody's fan base kind of melting together.

There's always a spot, any time we make a new record, where I literally go back to Judas Priest and Motorhead because you have to. You have to go back and understand where this all started for you and keep reminding yourself of that.

It doesn't matter how you're dressed onstage or what you say in your songs: that doesn't give anybody the right to invade your personal space.
