I can speak for most songwriters - those breakup love songs are so easy to write, as far as the inspiration and all that.

I don't keep a journal anymore. I did when I was a teenager, but now because I write about it all in my songs, that's what I'm really doing.

You can't be afraid to deal with your demons. You've got to go there to be able to write.

I'd rather play a few nights at the Fillmore than play one night at an arena.

I'm an artist first and foremost. So things are gonna go up and down and sideways and whichever way all through life.

It's easier to write songs when you're single.

I usually don't write about my life right when it happens. I process it, and I store it away. Then, when I get in the mood I pull the stuff back out.
