My lifes a wreck, and I love it.

Yeah, playing anywhere from three to five gigs a week definitely [helped]. I think all the practice throughout the years and doing what I do paid off.

It's not just about waking up and trying to be a star... It's practice, practice, practice.

I'd like to expand on doing what I love and venture out a bit more. I would like to play consistantly good music. Eventually someday I would like to open up a school and teach kids about music.

I think America did a great job. I think Carrie Underwood fits the bill of American Idol. She's a wonderful girl, and she's gonna have a great career.

I try to be a better dad and husband than I do pretend rock star.

I didn't have a lot to do with the first record.
