If you're purely derivative in what you do, then you could very easily get lost along the way. But for me, I might want to even do something else for a while.

I don't like to be recognized on the street or in restaurants, and I don't like the whole celebrity thing.

I just want to play guitar and be in a band. Same as I always did.

I've never been to a Hollywood party, although I imagine that it might be fun.

I was a single mom with two kids. What else was I going to do? It was either be in a band or be a waitress.

The only person stopping you from doing something is yourself, and looking for excuses all the time just gets in the way of obtaining your own goals. It's like the writer who keeps getting up and straightening the pictures in the room.

You know, when you're 23 and you get pissed, I mean drunk, you can just go crazy and it's all right. But if you're 43 and you do it, it's like your best friend's mother who used to come in pissed and everybody was really embarrassed. It just doesn't go down well, you know, after a certain age.
