The best training is to play by ear: trial by fire.

The biggest weapon is to stay peaceful

In terms of the technology I use the most, it's probably a tie between my Blackberry and my MacBook Pro laptop. That's how I communicate with the rest of the world and how I handle all the business I have to handle.

Sometimes I just think people are haters. And if they're haters, you can listen to what they have to say but you have to take it with a grain of salt.

I believed in myself and I am a firm believer you have to think the things you want and visualize.

I used to work for a management consulting company, so I dressed differently - business casual, probably a lot of things from Banana Republic. My wardrobe now is definitely more expensive, but I always dress for the occasion.

I have a great band, with very talented players, and we give everything we have every night.
