I was addicted to playing music.

Robert Duvall saw me playing at a restaurant in Louisiana and invited me to be an extra in his movie 'The Apostle.' He gave me a guitar for my sixth birthday, and I thought that was the coolest thing in the world.

I grew up in a fun-loving environment - you work hard and play hard.

All my band members were old enough to be my dad. It was like this family vibe.

I don't even have a type, I don't think. My type is just whoever can get along with me.

To be the name on somebody's shirt that they've made themselves in preparation for one of your shows - it doesn't get much cooler than that.
