I'm all about change, and I know things are going to move forward in life, and that's just how it goes.

I see friends who are in different genres of music, and they say they're so burnt playing the same stuff every night. That's why you see a country act wanting to go out and play an old classic rock song. But what cracks me up is that they all want to be Jimmy Buffett. I can't figure that out.

I always believed it would happen and stuck to my guns.

My shows aren't about trying to save some place, because I don't feel that's the right venue for it. That's my politics right there: Don't bring politics to my shows.

My good friends call me Bobby.

I didn't want to go out and change anything. I just wanted to make the music that was part of my background, which was rock and blues and hip-hop.

Surround yourself with good people. Whether they're the best or not, people are capable of learning if they've got good hearts and they're good souls.
