I think we have passed a meaningful piece of legislation here today that's certainly going to enhance mine safety. We think that the additional inspections will certainly improve mine safety.
Before, I recorded in specific blocks of time. That's changed. Now everything revolves around making music for me. And it feels good.
Even though I talk about them every day, I was still incredibly nervous and shaken. It was a stressful situation.
At that point one of the nurses and I reached for the button at the same time and delivered one shock.
If they're as committed to mine safety as they say they are, then they need to incorporate these things into their bill. These are things that shouldn't be argued over.
But it's the first time I've ever been married sober,
I think we all care just as much about our coal miners as we do our deer and turkey.
I think the singer/songwriter genre is going to be like bluegrass and jazz. You can make a living at it, but it's not part of the musical mainstream anymore.
From my side, we'll have the best field ever. The response has been tremendous. When the event was troubled, then continued with closer ties to the Navy, it seemed to increase everyone's desire to be here. This is the strongest entry list ever for Coronado.
You can listen to carpenters talk for hours in Ireland. The people have a relationship to words that I don't think you will run into anyplace in the world.
I love 'Harry Potter.' I love those books. That started because I lived with a woman who had kids who were, like, 10 and 7 when they moved in with me.
I've never made a record that I'm ashamed of.
I love e-books. I can carry the complete works of William Shakespeare around with me all the time. Just think about that. Whether I'm on an airplane or wherever. Being able to have a library in your back pocket basically is something I support.
I am connected to the past in a way that keeps me going forward. Every leap forward that I make is by reaching back and firmly getting a footing in the past, and pushing forward as hard as I can.
