Getting on stage is a bonus, that's my therapy, that's when I can tell stories and it all makes sense.

I use music and mantras that transform my thoughts from the negative to the positive. If I'm thinking the world is a horrible place, I can transform my life by saying, 'I won't give up', 'I won't worry my life away' and 'I won't hesitate no more', using these lyrics to change my experience. That is, I believe, what makes me seem like a positive person.

I'm trying to be more of a gentleman.

To create an album of 12 songs, I've got to write about 80 songs. Half of those are totally weird and rubbish.

The best thing for you to do is shop at your local farmer's market and support the organic growers who are there. Because those are the guys who are taking care of the soil that is ultimately going to take care of us.

When you choose to be a loving person, it's magical how love comes back to you and brightens someone's day, changing your mood and that of the world.

If you have a dream, this is your chance. We don't always have to play it safe because people might think you're weird.
