I can sustain the impetus over the long tours we do is by feeding off the energy that we get back from an audience. That's my fuel. All i've got is this burning energy, especially when i've got a guitar in my hands.

And then I think we realized, like any young guys, that blues are not learned in a monastery. You've got to go out there and get your heart broke and then come back and then you can sing the blues.

You get onstage and make other people feel happy. Make them feel good.

Hey, we just enjoy it. I think we think we're getting the hang of this thing, you know?

When I started, all I wanted to do was play like Chuck (Berry)

Music is a language that doesn’t speak in particular words. It speaks in emotions, and if it’s in the bones, it’s in the bones.

I'm all for a quiet life. I just didn't get one.
