I dropped out of college, started playing music. I was going to do what I was going to do and it is what it is.

I've always been a rebel and it's got me in trouble sometimes, and probably kept me poor. And then again, maybe not, because I might not have the two daughters that I have, you know. And we're all so close now.

My mum always told me, 'Have something to fall back on' and I never really listened.

I'm not raging drunk when I play. I just like to relax. Sometimes I stop and I tell people "I'm sorry, I'm really nervous".

There's nothing I'd really rather do, or can do, except cook.

I never stopped drinking, I just don't drink that much anymore. You know, sometimes on the weekends, it's not like a daily thing.

I still dream about my parents and have done every night for 10 years, and I wake up either crying or having to remember that they're gone.
