A biography for Gary Cheronehasn’t been written yet.
“When I was in Van Halen I was hitting notes that were out of my range. I never went for those registers before until Eddie pulled it out of me.”
“I have a little history. I met Stone Temple Pilots, and their guitar player was a huge Extreme fan. Somewhere down the road, Extreme made its statement.”
“My favorite Extreme records were the last two. I can't listen to the first one.”
“The voices on the record, that was trying to treat my voice like guitar players treat guitar tones.”
“If people get to the end of the record, then that is a treat.”
“It was fun while it lasted, but it never seemed real to me. I could not believe I was in Van Halen.”
“You have Extreme and Van Halen and the history that I have with other people I played with. There are some effects that will hopefully break that stereotype.”
“When people don't get enough information, they make it up.”
