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 can only listen to what I'm working on, at the time. I can't listen to anything else because I don't want to copy it.

I'm still terrified of flying. I really have to get drunk to fly. I've found that I've developed fears I never had before... fears of heights, claustrophobia... only in cities, though, never in the country.

The way I see it, rock & roll is folk music. Street music. It isn't taught in school. It has to be picked up.

I know where I'm going musically. I can see my pattern and I'm going much slower than I thought I'd be going.

There's always music that moves me. It doesn't necessarily mean that it's within the parenthesis of rock or blues, or whatever. It's usually far more reaching than that. It can be in many different genres.

I may not believe in myself, but I believe in what I'm doing.
