Most People Define Themselves By What They Do - 'i'm A Musician.' Then One Day It Occurred To Me That I'm Only A Musician When I'm Playing Music - Or Writing Music, Or Talking About Music. I Don't Do That 24 Hours A Day. I'm Also A Father, A Son, A Husband, A Citizen - I Mean, When I Go To Vote, I'm Not Thinking Of Myself As 'a Musician.'
