When you play with great musicians, whether they're schooled or self-taught, they keep you on your toes. It comes down to people's personalities and individual energies.

I love to play. And fortunately, I don't know a lot of musicians that suck. I know a bunch of really good ones, and they're always up for playing.

Throughout my whole life, as a performer, I've never played with a band. I've always played alone, so I was never required to stay in rhythm or anything. So it was a real different experience for me to start playing with a band. There were so many basic things for me to learn.

There are a lot better musicians than me out there that just haven't had the luck to fall into everything like I have.

I do not play to musicians. I play to the people.

I don't consider myself a musician. I'm an artist.

I feel really different from other musicians.

Great musicians accept everything that they hear and find something good. They take what they like and they throw away what they don't like.

Being in a band is far more than playing an instrument. It's surviving. It's getting an album together.

I think one of the great things about being a musician is that you never stop learning.
