Drums usually seem to tune themselves.

Dad and mom would have preferred that I be a doctor, a lawyer, a scientist, or a great humanitarian.

I like walking on the edge.

Anytime I switch to another instrument, I immediately turn it into another kind of drum so that I can understand it better.

Conway Twitty was always our local hero while I was growing up. He had a series of good bands. I wanted to sit in, if Conway would let me. And he did a couple of times.

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

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