When I decided to be a musician I reckoned that that was going to be the way of less profit, less money. I was sort of giving up the idea of making a lot of money. It was what I loved to do. I would have done it anyway. If I'd had to work at Taco Bell I'd have still been out at night trying to play music.

If you look around at America, that's one of its biggest problems is you have corporations that can never be pleased at a profit.

I'm actually better on the guitar than when I started, I think, because I've had so much time with it and I still practice and I love to do it and I love to sing.

I always liked the idea of the guitar - because cowboys played the guitar.

No matter how long you play the guitar, there's always something else to learn.

I remember things being more clearer, at one time things were more real.
