The only term I won't accept is "genius."
I'm at my best when I'm exhausted and under pressure.
My vocation is more in composition really than anything else - building up harmonies using the guitar, orchestrating the guitar like an army, a guitar army.
I really wasn't needed... Just straightening up riffs, that's all. Just two guitarists doing it instead of one.
I spend a lot of time near water.
My finger picking is sort of a cross between Pete Seeger, Earl Scruggs, and total incompetence.
