That's something that I've always gotten: a sense of humanity, a sense of awareness of yourself and the world around you.

I was never like, "Oh man, I want a Grammy and I'll do whatever it takes". Someone like that might not do what it takes to have a decent touring career, because they're in the studio trying to master whatever they're doing to win a Grammy.

When kids can't come to my show, I feel bad, because grown-up 21 and up people really probably don't need my help as much as an 11-year-old child.

It's human nature, we take a mile when we're given an inch. We're crazy. You see what we did to the animals! They don't even exist anymore!

I usually just have ideas when I have them.

Just be comfortable. Sometimes, when open up for a bigger artist at a conventional concert, you can feel unwelcome. But when you're playing a festival, people come to see music in general - so don't be fearful. The people are there to enjoy and discover new music so approach the show with confidence and optimism.

If you hit a kangaroo in the street and you have to pull out on the side of the road, it can get back up and murder you.
