Songwriting is the most terrifying thing to me, because you are really laying your heart out there.

When I left my band, I had to start over from scratch, and that's a scary place to go.

I am never excited to play through a song all the way, because it can reveal more flaws that mean more work. For some reason, I always have an irrational fear that the song will never be finished.

What you hear about the band is always going to be more disturbing than any particular song.

I always imagine later on these songs I could've played with a band, but it never worked out that way.

Everything is a battle with this band.

I know that there are a lot of sort of silly things that one thinks as a music listener about bands. I am a fan of many bands.

Playing for someone else's crowd is always difficult for any band.

My favorite band is Yes. They are all phenomenal musicians, and yes, this means I'm subject to ridicule from co-workers and occasionally from my wife, three kids, and even our Labradoodle pup.
