I put music on and I drive around town.

I never set out to write a certain kind of song, I just play my guitar and see if I catch something.

The things that got me through grade school are helping me out later in life. It's like, I show up on time. If you buy a ticket to one of my shows, I'll show up. I'll be there. And if it says 10:00, I'll be on stage at 10:00.

I blow up fireworks all the time, and I love making milkshakes and banana splits.

I don't think I've had a more miserable life than a lot of people. I think I've had a pretty lucky life.

I'm a natural ham. It doesn't bother me to perform.

I've been gone on the road for the past three years; maybe I've been home for two or three weeks in a year. I literally live - it's like one of those old movies where they show a train, and pages of a calendar are peeling away like leaves, and then there's a picture of me with gray hair.
