It's pretty easy. I got a great job. We didn't get into the music business so we'd be big stars and rich. We got into it because we loved music. We found this desire to play and it was like, 'Wow.' We do it to please ourselves. When we please ourselves, the fans dig it and everything goes better. It's not hard to go out and do something you love every night.
Acceptance. Prayer. Health. Give and take. Patience. Love. Just like it is with anybody else in the world, except we're together on a bus.
