I don't want to say I can't wait to get back to normal life, because I don't. I don't want to get back to normal life.

I will continue to pursue my music and live my life with my family.

For me, something will come in my head and I'll either end up calling my cell phone to record it, or I'll just pick my guitar up and see what comes out. Sometimes it sucks, sometimes it doesn't. So there's really no set method behind it.

I was always in bands before, but on 'American Idol,' it was about getting my voice out there. It was always my goal, though, to get a band together again.

I don't want to say I can't wait to get back to normal life, because I don't. I don't want to get back to normal life.

Ed Kowalczyk is my favorite singer.

I think I definitely enjoy recording, but I think it's more fun to go out and perform live, because it's like instant gratification, you know? You feel the response immediately.
