opportunity men land
The land of opportunity spawned a whole new breed of men without souls.
breakup careers scary
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.
eagles proud
I'm certainly not thrilled with everything the Eagles did, but there are some things I'm quite proud of.
hurt
Playing the drums hurts my back.
house paper pieces
I'm always jotting things down on pieces of paper. I've got pieces of paper all over my house.
writing men focus
I have a certain pool of subject matter that I like to write about, things that interest me: politics, religion, ecology, and relationships between men and women. And that's usually what I focus on.
sound tools machines
Some records with drum machines on them sound phony and plastic. It all depends on how you use the tools.
eight firsts albums
Selling eight million copies of your first album will mess you up.
song writing law
Anyone who knows anything should know you cannot take a master track of a recording and write another song over the top of it. You just can't do that. You can call it a tribute or whatever you want to call it, but it's against the law. That's a problem with some of the younger generation, they don't understand the concept of intellectual property and copyright.
joy moments hours
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
spiritual garden knowing
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.
party adolescence
We live a protracted adolescence. At some point you must leave the party.
art kings dirty
We all know that crap is king, give us dirty laundry.
art media littles
We're being treated to the wisdom of some puffed up, little fart. Doing exactly what I used to do, pretensions to anarchy and art.
