As an adolescent, I was painfully shy, withdrawn. I didn't really have the nerve to sing my songs on stage, and nobody else was doing them. I decided to do them in disguise so that I didn't have to actually go through the humiliation of going on stage and being myself.

I thought that I wrote songs and wrote music, and that was sort of what I thought I was best at doing. And because nobody else was ever doing my songs, I felt - you know, I had to go out and do them.

I am person of action,no body can deter me from my way of thoughts & living.I am immoveable from my determination & my confidence,whatever obstacle may come in my way.I am unshakable in my conviction for truth & for just cause.I am insensitive to negativity in any form & do not care for those who does not have interest in my cherished goal to be a person of high self esteem.

If I were really being myself. I'd just curl up in the corner and knit.

I'm wallowing in the whole idea of just being a guy out there with a band, with songs. It's a real enjoyment.

I'm not playing a role. I'm being myself, whatever the hell that is.
