I'm normally the guy that stands off in the corner.
Not only am I trying to be a daddy, but also a friend, not be the old fogey thats slowing everybody else down. . . not for a while, at least.
The life that I live and the experiences that I have always affect what comes out of me creatively. I think that's what makes music real.
My granddaddy on my momma's side, he was a romantic. He loved love songs. Every Valentine's Day, I remember him buying a red carnation for my grandmomma, my momma and my sister. That was something you could count on every year.
I'm definitely not going to go and sing a song that condones certain things.
My first full year of touring, I did 300 days on the road. That was not including the travel time or publicity or anything else - that was just dates. I was home probably less than 50 days that year.
Countries are making nuclear weapons like there is no tomorrow.
The more you defend in the face of a critical audience, the more you polarize.
The perfection of mathematical beauty is such. . . that whatsoever is most beautiful and regular is also found to be most useful and excellent.
With music that I write, I like to have in there something you can relate to, a way to share the experience.
