Music. I do songs that have appeared on the pop charts, but they're music for grownups.

My traditional records are just chosen from my longtime favorite songs. But I have lots of music left in me; I'm just waiting for it to arrive.

And I thought about how many people have loved those songs. And how many people got through a lot of bad times because of those songs. And how many people enjoyed good times with those songs. And how much those songs really mean. I think it would be great to have written one of those songs. I bet if I wrote one of them, I would be very proud. I hope the people who wrote those songs are happy. I hope they feel it's enough. I really do because they've made me happy. And I'm only one person.

Their music is perfectly suited for our show — the sound of the songs, the personalities of the band members.

Categories are a drag. It's groove music. We don't just jam, the songs have parts. We don't just go off into oblivion. There is a beginning, middle and end with room for fooling around in the middle.
