Touring is what you make it. I like to organise as much as possible myself.

A lot of pop music is about stealing pocket money from children.

I think I've owned all the models of iPods so far. And these days between my iPod, iPhone and my personal laptop computer, I'm someone who is very, very grateful for all the ways to listen to music and completely switch off from people around me and listen to the music in detail, which is very hard to do if you're in a room with other people.

I was not a great guitarist, so I sold my 1960 Fender Stratocaster in exchange for a Shure Microphone, made in Chicago, and a flute.

Come with me to the Winged Isle- Northern father's Western child Where the Dance of Ages is playing still through far marches of Acres Wild.

Why do the faithful have such a will, to believe in something? And call in the name they choose, having chosen nothing.

The flute was an alternative to being a small fish in an increasingly bigger pool filled with a number of great guitar players.
