What I Always Try To Do Is

I'm Not A Collector, However, And I Have No Desire To Own 50 Or 60 Guitars.

Each Song Has Its Own Secret That's Different From Another Song, And Each Has Its Own Life. Sometimes It Has To Be Teased Out, Whereas Other Times It Might Come Fast. There Are No Laws About Songwriting Or Producing. It Depends On What You're Doing, Not Just Who You're Doing.

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.

I Used To Go To The School Folk Club With My Songs When I Was Only 13 Or So And Say "this Is A Traditional Folk Song" And Sing It With A Bad Irish Accent To Disguise The Real Source.
