I really think one of the greatest allies you can have is the imagination of your audience.

The last two years with the Eagles were pretty intense times. There was a lot of drinking and we were all getting high a lot. My parents were relieved when I got off the Eagles treadmill.

I got me a car and I got me some gas,Told everybody they could kiss my ass.

If the Eagles were to get back together, it would have to be for the right reasons. I think it would look awful if it were just for the money.

I think it would be nice to sell 15 million albums as a solo artist. I'd have to deal with all the repercussions of that, but that wouldn't be too bad.

I think that's a powerful thing, to be able to engage your audience and let them put some of themselves into the music.

It's a losing proposition, but one you can't refuse. It's the politics of contraband, it's the smuggler's blues.
