And all I really want to say is you're the reason I want to stay.

Everybody knows it hurts to grow up...and we're still fighting it.

I could probably live in Bali the rest of my life and completely live in the sticks and have a f - king moped and make a record every couple of years and not step in public and break even like I do anyway. That's really tempting.

If you're afraid they might discover your redneck past, there are a hundred ways to cover your redneck past.

I think people use temp music quite a bit, but the people who write the temp music don't ever really learn that their music was inspiring a movie.

But I really do have a soft spot for the solo shows. Any musician who writes and sings will tell you that's the center of it, that is it. It's almost like there's something church-like about it and you gotta go back there, if you're a songwriter that sings your material.

My job is to be some sort of music/lyric psychic, to figure out that that's the right song to not fight the lyric.
