I got very famous for a minute and then it just all went away, you know? And for the last 20 years - you've got to pick yourself up and dust yourself off and then go on your merry way and start again, in a sense, and that's what I've been doing.

I just want to be a better guitar player, really.

I sit around and play acoustic guitar - usually acoustic, sometimes electric, occasionally piano, but more often guitar, just trying to come up with tunes. Ideas kind of pop into your head.

I do like writing songs in a band. When it's rock, it's such a different kind of dynamic, obviously.

I had a very erratic career. I got very famous for a minute and then it just all went away, you know?

You don't want to get worse at something.

I love going up the West Coast of the U. S. because it's one of my favorite parts of the world to tour.
