I don't get in there and create a character. It's more of a voice that I hear living inside the music.

Once you sit in front of people and start playing songs, it's all on you. No matter what happens, it's entirely your responsibility the entire time. I like that intensity.

Radio and TV can still push a band, but things need to be shaken up. There is the Internet, but mostly what I see there is little kids on YouTube playing music.

I've had a long career and I want to continue to have a long career. The way to do that is not to go away.

The freedom I have as a U.S. citizen is unparalleled. Despite the fact people may not like American passports, having that passport affords me more freedoms than any other passport could.

There wasn't a key moment when I knew I wanted to quit.

The words you say never live up to the words in your head.
