Quotes

• "I could stand out front and sing Eagles songs that I sing in my set, but I think people enjoy watching me sing and play the drums. It seems to fascinate people. I don't know why."

• "I have things that I am interested in, and that's usually what comes out on the album."

• "I would rather take a long time and make a record with eight or ten good songs on it than to rush one out with only one or two good songs on it, which is what I find to be the case most of the time."

• "I'm always jotting things down on pieces of paper. I've got pieces of paper all over my house."
