I had the fortunate experience to play with people from different schools of music. Sam Rivers is from the fundamentalist school of music.

I think Wes Montgomery is the greatest jazz guitarist that ever lived.

I am blessed to have Mom and Dad.

I want someone who is open-minded, dedicated to whatever she is doing and isn't afraid to say I love you. As for looks, she shouldn't have three heads. I want a regular human being.

The worst part is doubt. When you doubt yourself, which we are taught to do, you get lost.

I consider myself a serious musician. Doing a comedy show does not take away from that in any way.

Being as versatile as I am, I take offense to the notion that no serious musician would not be doing a late night talk show gig. One has to be open enough in other areas to be able to contribute to a show like this.
