I don't understand how a musician can play 90 minutes on stage and then not dedicate a little bit of time to hang out at their merch table. It's not like digging a ditch or something; you're standing there thanking people for coming out to see you.

You should work at everything you do and try to perfect it as best you can.

I always tell people that my primary job is being a dad and husband. Music is just what pays the bills.

There's just enough drinking and cheating songs around without me adding to them. Unless you've got something better than "Misery and Gin" by Merle Haggard, you're beating a dead horse.

I'd like to think that throughout my career whatever my current record is has 110% of my best.

I think most performers are just lazy.

Family is fun, way more fun than music.
