Own Words
I’m afraid I’m no closer to having anything figured out than the rest of you; although, I do believe if there is a God, it is Love in both noun and verb forms.
My first car was a bright blue Honda rice-rocket. The first album I listened to in that car was BB King’s “Live at the Regal.” Every single driving experience since then has been a hopeless attempt to recreate that first night. Kid A came pretty darn close. So did All Eyez on Me.
I have an unhealthy, irrational love of the Washington Redskins and the State of California.
If hatin’ was a sport, I’d be Muhammad Ali.
No other woman in the history of the universe makes me laugh more than my wife does. The importance and fortune of this cannot be overstated.
I’ve been to all 50 U.S. States – but haven’t been to New York City. This causes me great shame in my interactions with other human beings.
I wish my full-time occupation was, “musician.”
My wish to action ratio is about 3:2. This is mostly due to moments of extreme private insecurity.
I’m horrible at math by choice.
In hindsight, it was a pretty stupid decision.
I like to actually experience things, with or without taking a picture to prove it.
My earliest musical memories involve “Rhiannon,” “Take It Easy” and “Heartache Tonight.” If this applies to you, we should talk.
I change my mind a lot. I’m pretty sure that’s why it’s there.
I hate ignorance, intolerance and apathy more than anything else in the world. Also, the Dallas Cowboys.
I’ve learned that a shared hatred often goes much further than a shared affinity.
