In the '80s I started running, staying in shape.
From Jerry Jeff Walker
I always liked having a good time. I got into this business because I got fired from any job I ever had because I stayed out late playing music.
I don't try to write songs that will further my career. I write about things that I care about. I don't have a career as much as I'm having an adventure with a guitar. I never liked the business way of doing it. You have to follow some sort of instinct.
There seems to be a great propensity in this business to write tear-jerkers, 'You-left-me' songs. I thought, 'Why don't I count my blessings by looking at what I have?' I'm pretty much an optimistic guy.
Nashville is the business center. They forget that the bottom line of it all is still the song.
Taking over our own business and running it ourselves has tied us even more to our fans.
Our audience is really upbeat. Likes to have a good time. They're not introverted or shy.
