David Ortiz is a genius. He's incredible to watch. Over and over, he hits home runs that are simply transcendent.

I want to paint. That is probably going to sound so pretentious coming from someone who's been a musician.

My guitar playing has not developed as much as I think it could because I never practice. I only play when I'm writing or recording or when I'm playing on tour. When I'm sitting around at home, I never play.

My first guitar was a Gibson Challenger.

I'm pretty good with languages. I know a bit of French and actually want to live in France some day so that I can get fluent. I think it'd be tragic to go through life only knowing one language.

Although I'm a huge fan of Ben Kweller, I don't think I'd cover one of his songs, simply because there's just so much of my own stuff I wanna do.

I've been embarrassing myself publicly for over 20 years. Why should I stop now?
