I feel with ELP that I wasn't making the most of my life and I wasn't making the most of my creativity. I was marking time. I don't want to do that. Life is to short.

I don't think art is a goal orientated business. I don't do things for the challenges, I only do them because I love them, I'm not really a goal orientated, achiever type of person.

You want each city to be different, not just see the same shopping malls and stores wherever you go. That's not healthy.

Music is an emotional experience, and that is what imprints itself on the soul.

Philosophically, what I have learned is to thy own self be true. That is the biggest lesson of all. Relax; music is fun. To many people take it to seriously because of the money involved.

I love touring in the United States. It's dramatically different wherever you go. North to south you're going from snow to palm trees.

Unless you go forward then you are going back.
