Trios aren’t really geared for slide unless you’re gonna play chords, or play that simple George Thorogood style. It gets pretty thin when you play single note lines.

I’m not generally a big solo guy, because I’m not into showing off that way.

The band? No way! There ain’t no band. The band is not ‘the band’ right now. It’s just three guys.

I’d like to have a beer-holder on my guitar like they have on boats.

I like a women who’s got some balls, some strength. As long as I can beat her at arm wrestling, that’s fine.

A lot of modern amps and preamps sound great when you’re jamming by yourself, but don’t hold up in a band situation. The sound isn’t dense enough, and the lows and highs tend to get soaked up by the bass and cymbals.

I like playing music because it’s a good living and I get satisfaction from it. But I can’t feed my family with satisfaction.

If you’re into what you’re playing, that’s the most important thing.

I associate times with certain music. It still is that for me. It’s telling the story of our lives.

I’d much rather talk about guitar playing. I hate it when people ask me about my lyrics. I always feel like telling them to just go and read them.
