I lived in small town out in the desert and my friend used to steal his mom's car in the middle of the night. He'd drive over to my house, I'd sneak out and we'd go out to the desert and just burn things down.

If your like me, you like to wait till your parents are having sex and walk in on them and act like its an accident, and then ask if you can join in.

I'm always asking friends what new music they're into, and I love showing people new talented artists.

Getting to meet other artists that I admire is one of the best parts of my job. I don't know if I'd say "star struck" as much as excited to hear other peoples' ideas.

Every one of those old songs like "What's My Age Again?" and "All the Small Things" is like a tattoo or a scrapbook or an old photograph. There are just songs that define certain moments in your life. Everyone has a song that got them through a bad breakup or they put on and it made them feel like they wanted to go out and kick the world's ass with their friends on a weekend. Those songs still feel like that to me.

It feels humiliating to be in a band where you have to be apologizing for one person all the time.

Life's too short to sit through songs you don't love.
