Everybody always tells you what an awesome and unique experience being a parent is. Words can never do the feeling justice.

In the digital age we're in now, with satellite radio and Pandora and stuff like that, it's not about, "I listen to this kind of music." It's about, "I listen to good music and bad music."

The biggest thing is to continue to do what you do. A lot of people, when they get to a certain level, start thinking about it too much and they change what they do.

I have a huge chip on my shoulder.

I don't use the big video screens that a lot of other artists use because personally, I think it's kind of a crutch. I think sometimes it's like watching television as opposed to really getting involved with what is happening onstage and the people in your section.

I'm not a trust-fund type.

I wouldn't be the man I am today, If not for those I've loved along the way
