Great art is a regional thing. I'm not saying my art is great. I recognize what I think is great about music is often on a regional level.

I have the ability to go back to the old days with the boys and remember what it was like playing music. I have that real connection to the feeling of playing music as a young man. I do. I can almost touch it.

I've been really supported by my family and my wife. She really understands what I do, but it doesn't get any easier when you get away all the time and so I'm trying to find the balance.

I might be a teacher or something like that. I really like young people. I always think about the teachers I had that did a good job. I would maybe have the same aspirations.

What you're hoping for about the concert is an overall collective experience that everyone has and that you share with them and when you hit the stage you have a "common" feeling. Even though you're the performer and they're the audience there's something uniting everybody in the room.

I chose to go to Arizona, because it was an opportunity to make something that I've never done. To work with different people and to have a good time when you're recording and to not have the whole thing be some sort of editing process in front of a computer, but to actually try and capture some sort of spirit.

I tend to pour myself into my music and I don't have a lot of other places my mind goes, unless it's spending time with family and friends.
