Anything that happens after I write a song...that's fine with me. It's up to the listener to read into it what they need from it. And that's part of the reason I write like I do, so I can leave the holes in the right places so people can say, 'Yeah, that happened to me,' and they're able to have their own little fantasy about it.

Interesting little game we play with each other.

If I knew where good songs came from, I'd go there more often.

I've known Shawn for several years. And he's just an amazing talent. He's a great writer, a marvelous, marvelous guitar player, and plays really good fiddle.

Ain't no chance if you dont take it.

I just was apologizing for maybe being a little goofy.

I love playing and I love singing, and the writing. There's kind of a symbiotic relationship between the writing and the playing.
