I love any and all situations where you celebrate creativity.
As a guitar player, it's harder for me to impress somebody than it is to write a song that they like.
Unless you're a true prodigy, you're going to have to practice for a while being bad before you get any good. And it will seem like a waste of time. I remember that feeling well. But don't worry about wasting time, because it'll be so worth it. It's my experience that in the end, life lessons and guitar lessons begin to blur in all sorts of interesting ways.
I try to write like the writers I admire - I rip them off in form. It comes from George Strait and Merle Haggard records, and country music in general is really good at that, the twisted phrase... So Im always looking for that angle in my own work.
Pilgrims travel to Jerusalem to see the Holy Land, and the foundations of their faith. People go to Washington, D.C. to see the workings of government, and the foundation of our country. And fans flock to Nashville to see the foundation of country music, the Grand Ole Opry.
... there are a lot of shredders in country music - Redd Volkaert, Brent Mason, Dan Huff .. and guys like that
Jackass millionaires, hey, hey, Hollywood, here we come.
I get to cry to Barbara Walters, when things don't go my way. I'll get community service no matter which laws I break.
I can fall in and out of love, have marriages that barely last a month. When they go down the drain, I'll blame it on the fame.
This is real, this is your life in a song...this is country music.
Guitar playing isn't really for everybody.
Can't wait to date a supermodel, can't wait to sue my Dad. Can't wait to wreck a Ferrari, on the way to rehab.
When every memory has been made and the pages start to fade. And every prayer you ever prayed is heaven bound. When you think the ride is over, you're back at the beginning. Love is never-ending.
Well one thing's for sure.. all you really need is love.
