Dude, maybe not everyone loves 'Glee.' Me included. I watched 10 minutes and it wasn't my thing.
My mother was a public school teacher in Virginia, and we didn't have any money, we just survived on happiness, on being a happy family.
I never needed much, and I never thought I'd get more than what I had. A trip to Burger King was the biggest thing in the world to me. Heaven.
The most important thing for me is my family, and my health and happiness, and making sure everyone's cool.
Just the other day someone threw a bra duct-taped to a tennis ball. I just stood there, playing guitar, thinking how this was totally premeditated. Some girl sat around inventing a way to get her bra onstage from 40 rows back.
A musician should only sound like what they do, and no two musicians sound the same. It's an individual-feel thing, you know?
Develop that individuality by working as hard as you can at what you love.
You will only be great at things you love to do don't pursue a career in something you hate to do.
If there's one thing I'm good at, it's gathering people together to do something fun.
I'm not into albums that are meant to sound perfect,
When I listen to the radio, I just hear so much music that doesn't even sound like people. The vocals are all tuned, and the drums are all fake.
I think maybe people see bands and musicians as some sort of superhero unrealistic sport that happens in another dimension where it's not real people and not real emotions. So, I grew up listening to Beatles records on my floor. That's how I learned how to play guitar. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't be a musician.
When you're young, you're not afraid of what comes next. You're excited by it.
As I get older... I start to realize that life ain't half bad. Each year, I'm amazed that I'm still alive. I don't take any of this for granted, I'm a lucky dude.
