I don't research anything.

I like duos with percussionists. I like the songs that percussionists sing.

I wouldn't want to be ideological about it but I think of it as being the best way to approach this kind of playing. I don't think it works in other music, other kinds of playing.

Playing music is not really susceptible to theory much. Circumstances affect it so much.

Younger players in this music often turn out to be middle aged; it is not a young music.

In the absence of that, I am happy to play solo, but I don't think there is any comparison.

I'm not much into current electronic stuff, what I think of as lounge electronics, mumbling electronics.

Free improvisation, in addition to being a highly skilled musical craft, is open to use by almost anyone - beginners, children, and non-musicians.

Solo concerts are murder, I find; I don't like doing them.

I have always been attracted to the cottage industry side of this business.

In fact its quite gratifying for me to see some of the people who really objected to this method of working now being quite so profligate in their use of it.

Men....do you have a plan for your business? Tell your wife, be honest. If you lock her out of your plan, she will become malfunction.

God - but a word invoked to explain the world.

Everyone should just drive out to the Mojave Desert and just experience it, and it's a fun place to live.

I'm really getting better at guitar. I'm not trapped behind a piano. You can get out and move with a guitar and still direct the band.

Never underestimate the healing power of breath.

Distance might not solve anything, no matter how far you run.

I think I lot of young people feel like they have no purpose, so I try to enlighten them with my life and show them you can do whatever you put your mind to.

Everybody wants to be loved by everybody, and they'll do everything they can to be loved, including not be who they really are, from person to person.

People don't usually compliment your character.
