I'll be here tomorrow If I can make it through today.

I am a white guy in America with an education, albeit high school, but a pretty good one. Another guy from a different demographic or different ethnicity in America can look at me and say, "You take a lot for granted." Well... okay. I just live in a white male American reality, where I hear you but I don't know if I necessarily read you.

Hope is the last thing a person does before they are defeated.

Music, to me, is mankind's greatest possible achievement because look at all the good it does.

But I have a good life. I enjoy what I do. I am married to work.

Marriage equality is a term so ridiculous on its face that when you hear it mentioned, you would think you were in Riyadh. Years from now, perhaps we can lose the equality part, the same-sex part and call it what it is - marriage.

If it were a choice between me getting killed or one of my friend's kids, I would happily take the shot.
