I’m pleased with how ridiculous I am. I like me. Though I’m not a huge fan. I know when to switch me off.

I'm not a sad old hippie - I'm a joyous old hippie.

What I lack in style and craft, I can make up for in joy and enthusiasm. I like to be around people who are at ease so I like to think the 25-year-old would find me quite an easy-going late-middle-aged hippie.

I like the idea of being alone. I like the idea of often being alone in all aspects of my life. I like to feel lonely. I like to need things.

I've had many years to consider what I would like to see about a particular place. I don't waste any time and I enjoy it.

The idea of actually taking sharp turns left and right has always intrigued me, but I've never really been bold enough to do that. As musicians go, I've allowed myself to be carried by other people's enthusiasm into places where I've learned a lot. There is no real tumult anymore. What I want to do, I do! I'm pretty fortunate.

I'm a total soccer freak. I total soccer freak. Absolute total.
