Chasing dragons with plastic swords, Jack Off Jimmy everybody wants more.

I feel like I've passed through a certain door in my life and that I'm standing in a different room now.

I thrive on being on the road, waking up in a different place every day and having my life revolve around music. When you walk out in front of 300,000 people and pull it off, it validates you.

When "news stories" are broken, do we not expect a certain amount of fact-checking or source-checking? One has to ask if this falls under the guise of sloppy reporting or deception as a source of spin.

I hate that word, mature, but I guess I am growing up.

Don't the wounded bird still sing?
