To me, all war is failure for humanity, though it often is a bounty for commerce.

I pretty much ignored politics all through my 20′s and 30′s... I had other things on my mind... the band, finding a meaningful relationship, getting enough money to eat and pay the rent.

I probably had the most fun recording For Richer For Poorer in Nashville.

The turning point for me was when the Supreme Court installed Bush in 2000, even though he got half a million votes less nationally than Gore. It was nothing more than a bloodless coup and that's when I really started paying attention.

Cleveland is the place I grew up and lived much of my adult life, so it will always be a part of my soul.

I have always abhorred the business end of music.

In my mid 30's, after a decade or so of giving full time to the music thing and finding myself with about $10 in the bank and no assets other than my musical equipment, I realized I needed to get serious about making a living.
