Bob Seger Was A Huge Inspiration.

I Come From A Long Line Of Sinners Like Me

If I Was Concerned About My Legacy, There’s No Way I Would Ever Sit There [and Be A Reality-show Judge]. Once Your Career Becomes About Some¬thing Other Than The Music, Then That’s What It Is. I’ll Never Make That Mistake.

In The Digital Age We're In Now, With Satellite Radio And Pandora And Stuff Like That, It's Not About, "i Listen To This Kind Of Music." It's About, "i Listen To Good Music And Bad Music."

I Have A Huge Chip On My Shoulder.

I've Always Made Music That Was Representative Of Real Life.
