I try to record music that people can relate to.

The worst gig story I have is from a club in Alabama that I think is still up and running, so I won't name the name of the club. We got hired in there to play, and the owner was pretty annoying. He kept coming up to me during the show and asking me to play 'Purple Rain.'

I would say, 'Go ask any couple that's been married for 30, 40, 50 years... It hasn't always been roses.'

Capricorn was one of the homes of the Southern rock movement with the Allman Brothers and Charlie Daniels and the Marshall Tucker Band. I don't think you can come from that area and not be influenced by that stuff a little bit, no matter what generation you grew up in.

I'm very particular about the kind of music that I record and sing, and it would be the same way about the kind of movies that I would do.

I have a love of baseball and a love of music.

I think everybody would love to say they were in a movie. Whether or not I'm any good at it, I don't know.
