You can always pound out demos and send them to record companies, but most of the successful bands I've seen are the ones that can sustain themselves.

I think people have to be more aware of what the repercussions are of their actions.

I guess we all have a bad night now and then and really screw up. I listened to our earlier stuff and we screwed up a lot. But at least now that we are sober, when we screw up it's for real.

The media plays up celebrity a lot, but it doesn't hold a candle to being a scientist. There's a lot to be said for what they all do, and are trying to accomplish.

I collect firearms, and I've got a Winchester, an Indian rifle. It has tacks for every warrior that was shot, like notches on a pistol, and it's got feathers and beads hanging off it. It's like a work of art.

The really pop country stuff can sound a little bland because they put in strings and horns and all of that.

I don't need to speak...I play the guitar!
