A lot of writing I do on tour. I do a lot on airplanes. At home, I write a lot, obviously. When I write a song, what I usually do is work the lyric out first from some basic idea that I had, and then I get an acoustic guitar and I sit by the tape recorder and I try to bang it out as it comes.

I'm always in that mode - whenever I have a little free time, I'm always recording songs, writing, whatever I gotta do. It's like my job is my vacation.

For the most part, I like to record music as I write it.

I'm always going to do that - record and make music.

I write songs. Then, I record them. And, later, maybe I perform them on stage. That's what I do. That's my job. Simple.

When I perform, it's very personal. I'm sharing things I like, inviting the audience into my room.

I go out, but not too much. When I'm on tour, I just write a lot of music and sleep.

I always dress up for recordings.

A lot of times I go back to record and to make a tour, but I'm very happy to do it, because it gives me an opportunity to dig and hear what's going on.

I'm like a bad musical cliche because I bring my guitar on the road and try to write songs in hotel rooms.
