You know, I feel as comfortable in an uncomfortable situation as I do when things are going smoothly.
My life is spontaneous and things just kind of happen.
I just liked the feeling of being on stage.
I have a big ego, and I'm a confident person, but when it comes down to being a jerk, that doesn't work for me, I tried it... for about ten years.
I say sorry to my wife about five times a day for various reasons.
I've raised my girls in a sort of genderless fashion. I mean, I'll take them to get their nails done - I actually love doing that - but I also play ball with them. As a result, my girls are tough and athletic and game for everything.
If your record doesn't sell that well, man, who cares? All the satisfaction I need... comes when I step out onstage and see the people. That's awesome. I love that.
Everything I do is part of my passion.
My dad and mom believed that you do what you have to do in private and don't make a big deal out of it. Just try to help people as much as you can.
I'd like to move back to New Orleans.
I like to jump some rope and swing kettle bells to get my blood pumping. It makes my voice sound better, and it clears my head.
I have worked with Habitat for Humanity for awhile.
I guess play piano, you know, because that's the thing I started doing when I was a little kid.
I get terrible reviews everywhere I go.
