When my father passed away two or three years ago, I didn't listen to music for four days - that's a long time for me.

Our roof caved in four days ago. We've got mosquitoes, roaches, rats, everything. It's crazy. The police passed by us - they say we're supposed to evacuate. How? We don't have a car.

I can remember once when they were going through the top three or four closers, a couple months ago when he was second in the league [in saves], and he was never mentioned,

It is an honor to be here and to be of service with our music.

When you are writing, you have to go for the jugular, ... You have to write what's true. I really believe in telling the truth. I don't feel any blame, guilt, shame or anger for the things I've lived in my life. In that way I think I am free. If I felt guilty about the things I did, I wouldn't have had the book published.

When I hit that note - if I hit it correctly - I'm just as important as Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, or anybody. Because when I hit that note, I hit the umbilical cord of anybody who is listening.
