You can either make it come around or you can't. By the time we would be ready to record a song, we would know for sure that it was the best way we could do it.

Lord, when the song wants to pick up and go a little faster towards the end, it's hard for me to resist.

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.

Songs don't wear out. Good songs are good now. If they were a comfort during those hard times in the past, they'll be a comfort in today's age.

Drums just always sounded like the most fun part of that good music for me.

My dad and I played music. He teaches me a song or two every time I'm home.

I don't fool with a lot of things that I can't have fun with. There's not much reward in that.
