I've been trying to grow up some myself, in my heart, and it's happening quick and I feel good about it, and I want that to come out in the music.

You see, we are here, as far as I can tell, to help each other - our brothers, our sisters, our friends, our enemies. That's to help each other, not hurt each other.

That's how it happens, livin life by the drop.

I mainly use Stratocasters. I like a lot of different kinds of guitars, but for what I do, it seems that a Stratocaster is the most versatile. I can pretty much get any sound out of it, and I use stock pickups.

I use heavy strings, tune low, play hard, and floor it. Floor it. That's technical talk.

So, my big brother was playing guitar and I figured I'd try it too.

Lots of times I'll play lead and rhythm together.
