When I hear about something that's hot, I back away from it. So I go and discover the stuff I wasn't paying attention to five years ago.

I remember hearing about when U2 first came out and came to America and the gay community was their biggest following. And they were totally surprised, but they were like, that's cool. And for me it's the same thing.

I love adventures so to me, the best part is you never know what's going to happen next.

Sometimes it's difficult because you like some regularity in your life, but never knowing who's gonna pop up at what show, what person you might see that you don't expect to see in that city, what problem you're gonna have that night, even the problems at some of these venues, if you look at them the right way, it's an adventure. You're like a cowboy. That's the best part about being in the music industry. You get your gun and you ride your horse.

I learned to play piano on my own and my parents thought "Oh it would be a good thing for you take piano lessons. That's the way you really need to learn to play the piano."

I'm identifying with the underdog. And it makes totally sense to me.

There's a big difference between guiding and controlling.
