It is so killer to collaborate with someone who gets what you're trying to say.

I wanted to be a rock 'n' roll star. It defines life for me. It's all I've ever imagined for myself.

Imagery is the most important to me when singing stories. I try to paint pictures with the words and decorate with little to no singing....let the song do the work.

I don't like modern country music. It's not what I'm into, is all. I'm old-school.

What is happy? I think happy's in the moment. I don't think everybody can be happy all the time.

I don't talk about my personal life. But the relationships I've had have usually been with other musicians. It's just easier that way.

Now I can make a thousand dollars a night at a club.
