Long, flat expanses of professionalism bother me. I'd rather have a band that could explode at any time.

Said the condor to the preying mantis, we're gonna lose this place just like we lost Atlantis.

Our educational system basically strives for normal-which is too bad. Sometimes the exceptional is classified as abnormal and pushed aside.

I don't force it. If you don't have an idea and you don't hear anything going over and over in your head, don't sit down and try to write a song. You know, go mow the lawn...My songs speak for themselves.

I'm free to give my love, but you're not the one I'm thinking of.

Now I'm at a point where I decided I'm going to be in the studio for a while, at least until I finish this record I'm working on now. I should have two, three, four of the sessions that I had that were similar to the sessions for Peace Trail before I have a complete record.

There's a lot of frustration in trying to get music out when you're the only one who hears it, especially if you have something in your head that's not normal.
