When I listen to the radio, I just hear so much music that doesn't even sound like people. The vocals are all tuned, and the drums are all fake.

And later, if I ever felt that I was getting swept away by the craziness of being in a band, well, I'd go back to Virginia.

No one has any faith in the tape anymore - everyone just relies on computers and considers the hardrive to be the safest option, and I don't. I think an analog tape is something you can hold.

How do I stay humble? Because I'm the best at being humble.

Always have the highest bar for yourself. Wake up everyday and no matter how crappy you feel, want to change something for the better. Do something that makes someone happy. Create something that inspires someone. Be someone's light when they are hopeless.

People are so into digital recording now they forgot how easy analog recording can be.

I love to play music. So why endanger that with something like drugs?
