My driving career is low, but musically, it's all pretty high. It's a test of patience, takes forever, but I guess that's the nature of the thing of life. I'm glad to be living the musical life.

I was rescued from being a greaser by music.

I just like being in a place where there are lots of people playing. You might get to spend a minute, or collaborate.

Travel in car, because you can stop. Air travel any more is a nightmare. I think it's the same for everyone. If I have a choice to stand in line to get x-rayed, or see scenery, I'll take scenery.

I like being a writer.
