I'm certainly not thrilled with everything the Eagles did, but there are some things I'm quite proud of.
I played drums on Keith Carradine's first record.
I'm always jotting things down on pieces of paper. I've got pieces of paper all over my house.
What the head makes cloudy the heart makes clear
For every moment of joy Every hour of fear For every winding road that brought me here For every breath, for every day of living This is my Thanksgiving
I now derive physical and spiritual pleasure from gardening and there is tremendous satisfaction in knowing that I could survive almost anywhere if I had to.
My creative life is a constant struggle to achieve a balance between letting things flow in and letting things flow out.
It was pretty frightening because as we all know, when large, famous groups breakup, a lot of the members don't survive in solo careers.
Some records with drum machines on them sound phony and plastic. It all depends on how you use the tools.
Lawsuits should not be used to destroy a viable and independent distribution system. The solution lies in the marketplace and not the courtroom.
If dirt were dollars, I wouldn't have to worry anymore.
For you girl, there is not enough love in the world.
We live a protracted adolescence. At some point you must leave the party.
Selling eight million copies of your first album will mess you up.
