I realized the only time I felt complete and peaceful was while I was playing or shortly afterwards, even though it was in front of thousands of other people, which most people wouldn't consider to be a safe place.

Now those memories come back to haunt me they haunt me like a curse.

I was looking for some way to put my music to some service on a nightly basis. You go into a town, you play a little music, you leave something behind. That idea connected us to the local community. It was a very simple idea, but it really resonated with me.

I want a thousand guitars . . .

They say "ya gotta stay hungry"... Hey Baby...I'm just about starvin' tonight!

I found the key to the universe in the engine of an old parked car.

You can't shut off the risk and the pain without losing the love that remains.
