Every Guitar I Own Gets

I Don't Really Think Of Dire Straits As A Sound, You Know. It. Just Depends On The Song, And The Stuff We're Doing Is So Varied.

Well, I Was Born In Scotland And Spent The First Six Years Of My Life There. Then I Went To Newcastle-on-tyne In Northeast England, Close To Scotland.

I Love Gibsons, And Nationals, Too. There's Something Magical About Them.

I Left For The Same Reasons Everyone Leaves Jobs That Are No Longer Fulfilling Their Hopes And Aspirations. I Didn't See Myself Spending The Rest Of My Life Being A Strummer For Someone Else's Dreams. Whatever The Opposite Of Regret Is Best Describes How I've Always Felt About That Decision - It Opened Me Up To A Million Creative Opportunities I Needed To Experience Away From The Bullshit And Distorting Mirrors That Fame Engenders.

Last Time I Was Sober, Man I Felt Bad, Worst Hangover That I Ever Had. It Took Six Hamburgers, Scotch All Night, Nicotine For Breakfast Just To Put Me Right.
