If You Got A Trumpet, Get On

I Feel Like I've Spent The Last Five Years Of My Life On The Road. It Hasn't Affected My Songs But It's Probably Affected Everything Else About Me. Obviously, The More You Travel, The Wilder The Things That Keep Happening To You, The More Likely It Is You'll Get Complete Strangers Knocking On Your Hotel Room Door.

I Always Thought My Records Were Number One; It's Just The Charts Didn't Think So.

I've Always Hated Narrative Songs. I Hate Those Songs Where, Basically, It's An Unfolding Of A Story.

That's What I Like About Watching A Movie: You Enter An Imagined World That's More Interesting, More Engaging Than Your Own. Or Less Painful Than Your Own.

The Big Problem With Songwriting For Me Is Starting A New Song. It's The Thing Where All The Anguish Exists, Not In The Writing Of The Song, But The Starting Of The New Song.
