In pop music, you say, 'You can do what you want to me.' Rock 'n' roll says, 'I'm gonna do what I want to you.'

I've done some acting and a lot of different things, but mostly it's the music.

My guitar is not a thing. It is an extension of myself. It is who I am.

You follow any family around, you're going to see elation, you're going to see disharmony.

I had a blast doing the Warped Tour, but it's good to be home, for sure.

I know that sounds cliché, but mostly from my own experiences and things I see around me. We're all human beings, and a lot of the things I write about are pretty universal things.

The better your base is, and the more you know from experience, the better off you'll be when you try and make the big move.
