Inspiration is a really hard thing to describe, but it's something that triggers your brain, like the first time I heard a certain guitar player that I loved or the first time that I saw a monster or the first time that I saw anything that really was an epiphany for me. It just stays with you your whole life.

All my life, I've really enjoyed music: making music, playing it, and recording it. It's such a relief and a joy to do what I do for a living.

People don't buy music anymore; they're stealing it. But you can't steal a live show. There's no way to reproduce a real live show. So I think that when you put a great bill together, that people will come out for it.

I think I'm always writing, and I'm always working, and I'm always trying to be creative. It's just something that I do all the time. I watch TV, and I'll play guitar.

When my parents gave me that first guitar, I became totally obsessed. I would stay in my room all the time with it, and my parents were concerned.

I consider myself a musician. I like to play everything.

I love talking to people, and I'll listen to what they have to say, and if they have ideas or something like that, I'll put you to work.

Sometimes if you're in the studio for a very long time, you want to get out and play live shows and vice versa.
