The More I Go Onstage,

I Was So Happy Every Morning When I Woke Up That I Was Pissing Smiley Faces.

Anybody I'm In A Band With Can Do What They Do Better Than Me. I'm A Huge Believer That I Can Play Bass Or Whatever I Bring To The Table - Producing, Songwriting, Orchestrating - And I Can Look At The Other Guys And Say, "he's Got That, He's Got This, And I Have This." It's A Team Thing.

I Have A Lot Of Friends Who Come From Alcoholic Families, And They Aren't Alcoholics, Because Someone Explained It To Them. When I Was In Washington Dc, They Really Talked About The Difference Statistically Between Families That Talk About Drug Addiction And Ones That Don't. The Kids That Can Say "i See Where This Is Going" Have A Much Better Chance Of Not Becoming Addicts, Because They Have Been Educated.

Creativity Is Not Linear, Just Like The Earth Is Not Flat....if You Keep Going Long Enough You Will Always Get Back To Where You Started From. That Is When You Have Lived A Full Life. That Is The Artist's Path.

It's Physically Very, Very, Very Trying To Be Onstage As A Performer, Not Unlike An Athlete, For Thirty Years.
