Well one thing's for sure.. all you really need is love.

I can't see this world unless I go/ outside my southern comfort zone.

The nice thing about the world that I've been able to inhabit for the last couple of years is that I'm given a lot of freedom. Not all artists really get that.

I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be.

Albert Lee and I have become real close friends, and he comes out anytime I'm in the L.A. area, and he'll sit in for the whole show ! ... we've got a habit of doing that ... in Austin Redd Volkaert does the same thing ... it's fun ... I love to make it a guitar thing and the audience doesn't know any different - they think he's some new band member they don't know. They don't realize Albert's the reason we all play Teles!.

It comes down to building your own world out here on the road. It's who you surround yourself with. My band and crew are really positive guys.

I'm a last-minute shopper. I end up at the mall or somewhere on Christmas Eve. It's a shame.
