A musician should only sound like what they do, and no two musicians sound the same. It's an individual-feel thing, you know?

I don't feel like that many musicians are competitive with each other.

When I want 30 musicians in the orchestra, I get 30.

When I first wrote for orchestra, I didn't realize, when you have 20 people playing a violin line, that is very different than one person playing that line.

You can't beat 2 guitars, bass, and drums.

Creating sounds together with other musicians is something I've always liked doing.

You can't beat two guitars, bass, and drums.

I mean, look how many musicians have come through and played beside me, and I'm workin' and they're not.

See, I'm not a very good musician.

I feel really different from other musicians.
