As a musician, basically the masses never thought I was a musician.

When it came to rock, I was always drawn to guitars.

I consider myself a musician.

I feel really different from other musicians.

I was a hard rocker when I was in high school.

And this whole period of time of gradually working at being a better guitar player and songwriter have gradually led me to the point where I feel I'm doing a clearer representation of the thing that I've been feeling inside me since I was four years old.

I'd rather be a musician than a rock star.

I was a musician first before anything.

I understand how hard rock fans feel inside out, because I was one of those people.
