I'm not trying to be the new anybody.

Folk-rock hasn't changed much over the decades since the Byrds started it.

You don't see a lot of difference between the Gin Blossoms and the Byrds.

I wouldn't be interested in just doing a show that's mapped out and choreographed with a set list. That would've been boring so long ago it just wouldn't be any fun.

I've had an advantage; I've had a sort of open public acceptance in New York that doesn't happen to just anyone trying to make the transition you were talking about.

There was just no way I could leave this little Martin guitar in my apartment overnight or even in the afternoon, and expect to find it there when I got back.

It doesn't matter much what kind of house you've got as long as it's a happy home.
