I was an only child. I hung out with my parents.

I did everything I could to not be a musician.

Playing music has always felt very natural. You know, you do try to do other things, and you do learn lessons that way, but, eventually - well... if your dad is a plumber, you become a plumber. It's the family business, and I felt like I was taking over the family business.

I think guitar-wise, Eric Clapton was a big influence on me. I got to spend time around him. He's kind of strange, mysterious, serious and he always has played such hot guitar.

One interviewer asked me: 'How do you feel that you've betrayed your father?' That wasn't really very cool.

My dad used to say to me, 'You look more like me than I do.'

In almost any profession, even if you're the kid of an actor, people are very supportive and want to see the next generation.
