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.
My dad and I played music. He teaches me a song or two every time I'm home.
If things are going slow, I'm itchy.
If it doesn't come from your heart, music just doesn't work.
Most of our stuff was trial and error. You live with a tape recorder, you turn it on, you play the song and you listen to it.
I played some Yamaha drums that I like a lot. And I like the Yamaha people a lot too. They've been really nice to me and The Band.
