The fact that the internet is so active; people can now speak to me indirectly.

Generally, you are held to a sound and that becomes your sound. That gets branded as your sound, and all the copycats start with it because the labels are looking for that sound.

The local music community here was dying for a place to record, so we started doing acoustic, folk and bluegrass and then did rock projects for other bands, as well as for my son Tal and my own work.

I listened to it last night for the first time since we started this project. I went out to my car and put it in and went to an empty parking lot and just listened and read the little pamphlet that came with it. After two or three songs I burst into tears.

You take all the things that frighten you, and when you can get them to work for you all of sudden people are calling you a success.

With The Guess Who, it took us fifty-something singles before we had hits.

When you get successful, you can do pretty much whatever you want.
