Well, once you get the groove of your life and you sort out the aspects of your life that you prefer, and you’ve performed all your responsibilities as a father and as a partner. And just discovery and the great adventure of having eyes wide open. There’s so much of this beautiful planet that is still actually spectacular and stimulating. There are so many amazing people that you meet along the way. By using my career as the wind in the sails of my adventures, I could see so many things and so many people that I might have missed had my career gone a different direction.

Life is life. You do a lot of different things and you have great adventures but there's not a lot to talk about unless you're in the middle of an adventure at the time. Circumspection is not one of my better, favorite conditions, really.

The calendar and the mirror - they're bastards.

The whole idea of music, from the beginning of time, was for people to be happy

I don't think I've aged gracefully.

Possibly the whole creative whirlwind of any musician's life is based on garnering and developing and absorbing more and more experience.

Ten minutes in the music scene is the equal of one hundred years outside of it.
