easier full love playing smaller stage
I love playing with a full band, but there's just like a different feeling up on stage when you're playing with a smaller group. It's easier to play off each other.
fine front magazine music people
I'm just going to go out there, and if people want to put me on the front of their magazine or whatever, that's fine. If they don't, that's fine as well. I'm just going to go out there and make my music.
gets
My wife gets mad at me, because I'll worry more about my friends than I worry about myself.

Jive has been really, really good to me.
writing forever
Writing music and playing guitar was really what I wanted to do forever.

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day to turn it all around or throw it all away. We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say.. Gotta live like we’re dying
responsibility challenges looks
I feel like I see life differently. I see it as this amazing challenge that I look forward to every day. I never used to see life as that. It used to be just this thing you went through and had a good time. Now I have responsibilities to myself, my family, my fans that I have to uphold. It's more exciting this way and way more rewarding.
dream would-be incredibles
I would love to just talk to Paul McCartney. That would be incredible, but that is definitely like a dream.
want harder
The biggest thing I learned was that the harder you work for the thing that you love the most, then everything that you want is going to come true.
writing hard
It's hard to write music for specific things, because I'm always writing just to write.
sometimes terrible persons
I'm not a terrible person, I know that, but sometimes in a relationship, I can be crappy.

Arkansas is really, really nice. Its got the nature feel.
journaling
Journaling is something that I've always tried to get into.
