Most of your day is spent working, and being in a band is no different. We're just business travelers in a way.

It's hard to find vehicles for your music.

The best thing about being on the road in general is just playing every single night in front of people that are genuinely fans of your music.

I like to drive nice cars; since I live in New York, and I don't drive there, it's a novelty to be on the road and drive and listen to my music.

You have to spend a lot more time on the road these days if you want to make a living with music.

When I'm doing music and I'm on the road, I love it. But once I'm home, it's very difficult to go back out on the road.

Now I'm having to live with sales of around 50,000 per album - but I'm pretty content with my place in the general scheme of things, even if it's meant I don't drive a fancy car and can't afford grand vacations.

I really like listening to music in my car.

Keeping a consistent band going is a bit like getting the Aston Martin out the garage - you have to run it every now and then!

Be generous with your time and money - it has an amazingly fast payback. Be in the moment with everyone you love - and this frequently means tuning out work completely. And drive slow in parking lots.
