It ain't no sin to be glad you're alive.

Is a dream a lie if it don't come true? Or is it something worse?

Talk about a dream, try to make it real. You wake up in the night with a fear so real. Spend your life waiting for a moment that just don’t come. Well don’t waste your time waiting.

If I have a song that I feel is really one of my best songs, I like it to have a formal studio recording because I believe that something being officially released on a studio record gives it a certain authority that it doesn't quite have if it comes out on a live album or is just a part of your show, you know.

Physical pain is my friend. I pursue it every night for four hours.

That's what being a front man is all about - the idea of having something supple underneath you, that machine that roars and can turn on a dime.
