I may never get my own action figure, but at least I think what I'm doing is really legitimate musically.
I happen to be a guy who also plays the piano and sings, so people automatically associate me with Billy Joel.
The early Billy Joel stuff I fell in love with, like Glass Houses, is a real rock record.
I was introduced to country music around a campfire on a farm.
We have a George Foreman grill on the bus.
But I've never considered myself any kind of heartthrob. It sounds painful.
I like to do the splits onstage.
I took a lot of time to open myself up to taking chances musically.
When my grandfather died, I started adopting some of his accents, to sort of remind myself of him. A homage. He was a war hero, and he was really great with his hands.
