The only thing that's a little tricky about it is sometimes people assume that if it's a new song, it's a reflection of what you're feeling or going through now.

So it was just a case of getting a bunch of songs that I had been writing for years but hadn't recorded together, and the result was My Own Best Enemy.

One time Robert Plant was set to check into the same room after I checked out, so I removed every light bulb and ordered up a bunch of stinky cheese and put it under the mattress.

I can't wait to front my band with these new songs and play for fans, but I've decided to keep my day job too.

I think really what I'm saying is that I thrive on adversity.

Take a good look around and you'll find people trying to mess with your mind.

In the past, there has always been so much pressure about carrying a show and promoting a record.
