I'm Not A Political Guy. I've Been

Writing Is Not Work. In Fact, Theres Nothing Better. Writing Is Something That If The Music Business Went Completely Away Tomorrow - Radio Stations Quit Existing And Music Quit Being Popular And It Was Old Hat - I Would Still Write Songs.

In The Years That Ive Seen Concerts, When Ive Paid To See Somebody I Want To See, There Would Be A Certain Amount Of Songs Id Want To Hear. So Whether Its Stuff I Want To Play Every Night Or Not - Or Stuff Ive Been Playing For Years Or Stuff You Get Tired Of Playing - You Have To Play What People Pay For And Make It Fair For Them.

Here's The Thing. Just Because You're Pro-troops Doesn't Mean You're Pro-war. And Just Because You're Anti-war Doesn't Mean You're Anti-troops. Just Because You Don't Support The War People Think You Are Anti-troops And You Are A Bad Guy.

My Fans Have Been Very Loyal To Me, So I Want 'em Into The Mix Every Song. I Don't Want 'em Having Breaks On Stuff I'm Trying To Push On Them.

Writing Songs And Looking For Ideas Is Like Blinking My Eyes. It's An Involuntary Muscle. I Do It Without Thought.
