Playing live is about going for it .. it's about bringing it ... you should see a bunch of people trying out stuff, actually performing, instead of learning the record and recreating it note for note. I can't play the show the same way every night .. I really need to be in a creative environment, every night or I'll go nuts ... my manager accuses me of singing just long enough to get me to my next guitar solo - which is true.

If you're really on top, you probably didn't do that great, 'cause you have to water it down a bit for it to get that mass appeal

You look out there and there's people that, their day is changed because of your contribution to it.

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

Today she met me at the door, said I would have to choose, if I picked up that fishing rod today, she'd be packing all her things and she'd be gone by noon....well I'm gonna miss her when I get home tonight.

If there's a song where there's a possibility of guitar stuff that would be fun to listen to, go for it. Don't worry about what anybody thinks.

If I get an idea for a song, I have a melody for it. I'm a musician first. I'm not limited by the fretboard.
