I just really longed to do music that reflected me as an adult and music that I thought was for other adults.

So, after awhile, you can only get so much happiness from a guy who's drunk come up and tell you you're great.

This Classic Rock 'n Blues Tour / Hippiefest roster promises a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see some of the best, legendary artists of our lifetime. I can't wait to be a part of it.

And what makes me happy now has changed as well... Its one thing to play in a bar or at a biker festival, and hear a guy who's been drinking beer all day come up and tell you how good you are. For a long time in your life that will make you happy.

I was almost kind of trapped by my own success into only doing rock.

I started The McCoys in 1962, so I'm approaching my 40th year in the entertainment business.

I took the rhythm place, which a lot of people didn't know how to do the way I could, and this was really the first time that Johnny had a rhythm guitar player.
