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

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.

I think most performers are just lazy.

I still have a lot of passion for music, but I would quit it tomorrow if that's what my family needed me to do. I'm sure I'd miss it, but it's a job.

There might be some of them that don't care. To me, it's important that my fans know how much I appreciate them.

I couldn't write a song to save my life. I wouldn't say that I started to panic, but I was definitely getting frustrated. I couldn't even cross a t or dot an i.

Family is fun, way more fun than music.
