I have a bad back partially from playing the drums and singing. I used to have to hold my body in such a position that my spine got out of alignment.
From Don Henley
I have a certain pool of subject matter that I like to write about, things that interest me: politics, religion, ecology, and relationships between men and women. And that's usually what I focus on.
I played drums on Keith Carradine's first record.
I think my first instrument was a ukulele that they gave me. I used to know how to play that pretty well.
I try to write conversationally; I try to write like people speak and put the emphasis on the right syllable.
I'm always jotting things down on pieces of paper. I've got pieces of paper all over my house.
I'm blessed with a pretty good voice. So just sitting back there banging on the tubs wasn't enough.
I'm certainly not thrilled with everything the Eagles did, but there are some things I'm quite proud of.
I'm fortunate that I've been in this business long enough that I've earned the right to be left alone by my record company.
I'm not on any crusade.
