son hair white
I was silver-white by the time I was 35, but having grey hair makes me look washed out. My wife and son have both said that grey hair doesn't suit me because I have a boyish face.
stars guitar years
I understand the rock star deal having been one and still going out strapping my guitar on and performing. Now, I probably do 30 or 40 dates a year and I get to relive how I felt at 19 when I played in some really bad bands.
play nostalgia shows
I don't play nostalgia acts. I don't play nostalgia shows.
kids years play
For me to go back and to play for audiences some of whom have been following me for thirty years and some who have found me in the last five or six years, that's really an interesting thing. I have an audience that goes from kids to seventy year olds.
school son careers
I would be devastated if my son could not have music as part of his curriculum in school. It should not be a choice between culture and technical training - well-rounded students and graduates will make appropriate choices for their careers, but they must also be trained to make appropriate social choices.
people biographies awful
I've had three biographies made about my life so people know an awful lot about me.
numbers years metamorphosis
I've had a great metamorphosis in my life. I struggled for a number of years because I was identified with that image of the Seventies.
horse reading passion
I've had a passion for horses since I was very young - I used to sit on the floor in front of the races on television and pretend to be a jockey - and I first began reading the racing form on the set of 'The Partridge Family.
brother father together
If you put the talent of all my brothers together, they wouldn't add up to the talent that was in my father.
mom years height
My mom used to take me down to the Jersey Shore when I was 7, 8, 9 years old. I can remember being down in that area - Belmar, Seaside Heights, Asbury Park and all those places that I went back and revisited.
mom brother children
Oh, yeah. I grew up in Southern California in the 1960′s. It was very different. I was an only child as opposed to having siblings. My brothers all lived with my step-mom. I am very close to them, but we were not raised in the same house.
dream passion racing
Thoroughbred racing is really my true passion. I'm living my dream.
connections audience felt
My music was never considered cool, but I've always felt that connection with the audience.
mother father taken
My mother, Evelyn, was an actress and singer, and my father, Jack, was an actor. My earliest recollection of my father is being taken to see him in a matinee.
