It Was Never My First

I Got On The Phone With The President Of My Label And I Said, "obviously, I Write Songs In A Lot Of Styles And Play A Lot Of Different Kinds Of Music. We're Getting Toward The End Of Our Business Collaboration. If You Could Envision A Record That You Wanted To Hear From Me, What Kind Of Record Would It Be?" It Wasn't Like Asking Him To Fill An Order, It Was Really Just A Conversation. For All The Things I'd Ever Asked Him, This Was One Thing I'd Never Asked, And I Don't Know Why. So I Was Curious. And The Thing That He Was Most Interested In Hearing Was A Solo Record.

Rock Records. It's The Main Source Of Inspiration For People - Fans, Or Musicians, Or Both - To Act Out In Ways That They Wouldn't Normally Act Out. Especially Rock Critics. Ultimately, Records Don't Really Hurt Anybody, And Neither Do Reviews.

I Think That We Live In A Time Where It's Easier To Be Suspicious Of Dedicated Men And Women, People Dedicated To Their Craft, Because The World Around Them Inspires Them To Be Lazy. It Inspires Them To Be Negative. It Inspires Them To Be Snarky.
