I see love, like art, as an obsession. Maybe that's an overly romantic view of human existence, but I'm an overly romantic human being. If love, like rock and roll, doesn't consume me 24-7, it's not love. It can be respect, appreciation, admiration, wonderment, it can be a world of glory and a lifetime of peace, but I can't call it love. Love burns me and confuses me. Love's a light that can't be extinguished.

Eventually I want to subsidize my income with other creative outlets that are going to not keep me tied to the road so much.

I prefer a three-piece suit myself. Very sixties rock and roll. But they're not too quirky. Businessmen could wear them.

It seems like everyone's got an agenda, and the agenda seems to be selling magazines or air time with sensational stories.

Writing the songs and producing the songs and arranging them and recording them is your canvas and your palette and your brush.

It's incredibly stressful when the person you love is having a child.

Great classic music that I've been turned on to has not only inspired and influenced me, but it has had an effect on my songwriting.
