I like to get within handshaking distance of the crowd. If it happens, they know it, we know it, and that's all we came here for.

If you give it good concentration, good energy, good heart and good performance, the song will play you.

Those bad times are important. They give you a chance to practice, listen, take stock, have a life, get your feet back on the ground, and maybe you'll live to tell the story.

If it doesn't come from your heart, music just doesn't work.

I never subscribe to the stay-at-home policy. I'm not sick of the road or sick of eating in good restaurants around the country. I like to travel.

Maybe the greatness we heard in [Richard Manuel]'s voice, that catch in it, came from all that pain. To this day, we don't really know.

Forever Young, by Dylan, is one of my favorite songs.
