New York, it was an adult portion. It was an adult dose. So it took a couple of trips to get into it. You just go in the first time and you get your ass kicked and you take off. As soon as it heals up, you come back and you try it again. Eventually, you fall right in love with it.

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

We're all dealt with the same hand here, so to speak. I feel like I've had it a lot better than most people. I've had the opportunity to travel and play music all my life.

Music is the language of heaven.

The crowd is just as important as the group. It takes everything to make it work.

When the second record came out, they started calling it The Band. I voted to call it The Crackers. I'm no fool.

I don't think I'm a millionaire, but I'm comfortable.
