I loved both [Bob] Seger and the Eagles, knowing why they didn't play some of the songs I wanted to hear. But at the same time, they covered all the big bases, and the stuff that most people had heard. But they definitely had a bunch of album cuts that I wanted to hear that they didn't get around to.

I feel an obligation to those people who are willing to go lay their lives on the line. These are the same people that when we call on them, and we 100 percent agree as a country ... in our lifetime there's gonna be an event take place ... just like when 9/11 happened, everybody wanted to bring them to justice. When we called on the troops, they went in.

When I go in and vote, I vote for the person I think will get the job done.I don't vote right-left.

I'm as strong, strong as I can be, but ooh ooh ooh, baby you leave me weak.

I write all year, and at the end of the year I put an album out. And if sucks, it sucks, and if it's good, it's good. I just let it lay where it lays. It doesn't stop from doing another one next year.

A little blue-eyed blonde in a red hot sweater, wants to spice my chili, I think I'll let her.

You know, I'm pro-troops, but I'm not pro-war.
