To stand up on a stage alone with an acoustic guitar requires bravery bordering on heroism. Bordering on insanity.

There are only three white blues singers -- Geoff Muldaur is at least two of them.

I just like to entertain myself by sitting down and writing songs.

I don't really know how writing process happens, how these songs are arrived at. One of the things I like about the writing process is, I don't necessarily know where it's going, and even if I think I know where it's going, it'll turn out different. I find that exciting and rewarding.

An audience will let you know if a song communicates. If you see them kind of falling asleep during the song, or if they clap at the end of a song, then they're telling you something about the song. But you can have a good song that doesn't communicate. Perhaps that isn't a song that you can sing to people; perhaps that's a song that you sing to yourself. And some songs are maybe for a small audience, and some songs are for a wide audience. But the audience will let you know pretty quickly.

I think the reason kids get into drugs and smoking is they don't have anything to do.
