If you are a musician and you dont show any interest on the business level then you are actually vulnerable and people will rip you off. They will sweet talk you into anything.

Depression is something that makes you lose your sight.

It would be a dream come true if I could just go from studio to studio and play solos.

I view life as a learning experience. It is not so much all about music; it is about what happens when you are doing the music.

I practiced for at least two hours every day for twenty years, before then I practiced maybe four to five hours a day, and before then 14 hours a day. It was all I had ever done.

The other thing that has made playing live for me more enjoyable is the audience. I never knew I had such heartfelt, loving fans.

The music is a personal expression, like art. It is something that you like doing that comes from within, and is an expression that comes from God. That is why artists are beautiful and why people who copy are not really artistic.
