You can't live your life trying to please people. You be courteous and you be respectful, but you've got to do things in the way that you want to do them.
Being on the road is a great habitat for creating new music because there's so many different experiences.
I think I've lived a pretty hard life. What I mean by hard is that... I've been kind of reckless with things. I'm a passionate person. I'm a super passionate person. I think there's definitely been sorrow in my life, good and bad. I think it comes through. I hope it comes through in my writing because to me that's what artistry is.
I'm depressed when I don't get to do music. Having to go back to doing something I don't like and am not passionate about would be a tough thing.
