You wind up listening to one song that you really like 30 times on YouTube and then you're done with it. That's the way it is.

I don't have a role model, but I certainly have always enjoyed Neil Young. I had the great pleasure and opportunity to watch him from the side of the stage on a couple of occasions, and his on-stage sound is incredible.

Skepticism is only a time-based reality, and as an ultimate reality, it's always wrong, because everything always happens.
