I've started a project called Planet Art. The purpose will be to remind people where I really believe we came from, which was a creative planet, and that everybody can be autonomous through their art.

A long term goal is to encourage students to start doing concerts in which I or the other artists will come back at the end of the school year to see their concerts.

I have a lot of survivor insticts, and I know when to quit. I know when to go forward it my life, but not everybody does.

I love Chrissie Hynde and Mick Jagger. Someone at Capitol pointed out how much my inflections are similar to Jagger's.

I think people are basically unhappy working their jobs, and we all need to have that thing that gets our juices flowing.

I first met Hanson over in Japan and they gave me some great advice about the fans and they seem real down to earth. They're great.

Stop thinking you have to go to big industry to have a big life, because it's not the truth.
