My dad was depressed a lot of the time, and there were a lot of things in his life that he never resolved.

I never really expected to win the hearts of the masses.

I'd just like to inspire people to be themselves and do what they want and not conform to the rigid guidelines of the music or entertainment business.

I don't buy a lot when I travel, but when I do, I like to send gifts from wherever I am. It's fun to find the local post office.

My first guitar was a Gibson Challenger.

I don't have anything to prove anymore. I don't have a record deal, no one has any expectations, I'm in a position of freedom. I don't need anyone's approval.

I've always been a loner, and I've spent most of my life as a single person.
