Neil Young is the prime example, the grand goal, if you will. He's still shredding, and he never lost his credibility.

I mean, Manhattan is cool. But weird parts, I like that. Jamaica, Queens, that's great.

I lived in Brooklyn for a year and I moved out to Rockaway Beach. I've been living here for two years now. I put my address on the album, so I have a lot of visitors all the time.

[Juan Wauters] got the tips for Queens because he grew up there.So him and my roommate, Matt Volz, they hooked me up, New York Style.

I was having a good time before, but you grow up after a couple years and realize, "I can't get drunk like this every night." Things change.

I take making music seriously, but you have to have a sense of humor about yourself. I invite people into my life. That's how I do it.

I'm getting paid to tour and travel and I don't have to work a shitty job. And it's weird because you like start getting pissed off about that.
