It's a bit of a sore spot, the Thanksgiving in Indian country.

At a young age I thought, 'Wow, that fiddle thing, that's pretty cool. That mandolin is great. These drums, I like these drums... ' They were Indian drums. And I was saying, 'But that guitar. That guitar. Girls are going to like that guitar.'

It's a little bit iffy. Tyrone is still a little sore, still being bothered by the leg. We'll see if he's ready to go today or tomorrow. That will tell us a lot more about this weekend. He's not ready to go, let's put it that way.

I always think it's funny when Indians celebrate Thanksgiving. I mean, sure, the Indians and Pilgrims were best friends during the first Thanksgiving, but a few years later, the Pilgrims were shooting Indians.
So I'm never quite sure why we eat turkey like everybody else.

Think about the number of people who do film music, make records and have a Native American heritage - and I may be the only one on the list.

I come from a family who prided themselves, both sides, on memory. And I was told growing up, constantly, that I was born with a really good memory.
