Ed Kowalczyk is my favorite singer.

It doesn't matter how good you are as a band or how good your music may be; if the fans aren't supporting it and buying your music, it's hard to make it.

My son's taking drum lessons, and my daughter's taking piano lessons. One day they're going to start a band.

As a kid, I was heavily into martial arts and wanted to be the next Jean-Claude Van Damme.

I don't want to be that parent that puts my kids into what I think they should be in, you know what I mean?

I'd like to be a piano player.

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.
