There are so many little places I want to play, sometimes weird places I think would be fun to play... a bar that's half full.

You can't just be a musician; you have to be an entertainer and perform and act just to hit the bar.

I can't go into a bar anywhere without someone starting to play 'the Entertainer'.

Most recently we've been working in concert situations rather than clubs. because there aren't too many rooms there like Ronnie Scott's, that are pure music rooms, where people come specifically to listen to music.

Every weekend I go to the guitar bar in Hoboken and do a jam session.

Once you're in a particular country, and you're surrounded by musicians who are so adept at traditional music, you suddenly realize how much there is to explore and digest and learn and experience.

I haven't understood a bar of music in my life, but I have felt it.

My songs have a lot going on in them -they're packed with sounds. When I have only three or four minutes to capture something, I guess I can't stand the idea of any bar going unloved.

If this were all to go away tomorrow, all the big success, I would still be very happy going from bar to bar playing music for people.

Well, we play Country music; we're just not sure what country it is.
