Not to this extent but from day one I had an awful lot of confidence when I got started.

Classic Rock radio gave us our longevity.

My father had a couple of Mitch Miller records and a Spike Jones record, and that was it. My older brother had two or three Elvis Presley singles, and that was about it. The rest of it I did on my own.

My grandfather used to say I don't care how you talk about me, good or bad, just don't leave me out of the conversation.

I guess a good song is a good song is a good song, ya know.

As you get older the odds are against you that you are still going to be on the planet.

When people come to the show they think we are a legendary band because they hear us on Classic Rock radio all the time. It is psychological. That's okay - I'm down with that.
