The great thing about being 30 is that there are a great deal more available women. The young ones look younger and the old ones don't look nearly as old.
Money was a much saner goal than adoration. They'll both drive you crazy but if I'm going to blow my brains out for five years, I want something to show for it.
If you get a chance to be in a film, that's great. One of my goals is to make a record as good as Don Henley's album, Building the Perfect Beast.
I think that's a powerful thing, to be able to engage your audience and let them put some of themselves into the music.
It's a losing proposition, but one you can't refuse. It's the politics of contraband, it's the smuggler's blues.
Without a reunion, the Eagles are forever young, like James Dean.
Some people, they just don't get a joke.
Detroit... where 'mother' is half a word.
If you're writing songs by yourself, who's going to tell you if it's good or not? But if you're writing songs with somebody else, you get that immediate feedback.
If the Eagles were to get back together, it would have to be for the right reasons. I think it would look awful if it were just for the money.
I read the Life magazine articles about free love and free dope in California. At age 20 I drove to Los Angeles.
My songs grow on people - like warts.
I've read somewhere that when you're writing, you should stop while you're doing well so you always want to go back to work.
There are only those certain people where things click - at least for me.
