“I think I definitely enjoy recording, but I think it's more fun to go out and perform live, because it's like instant gratification, you know? You feel the response immediately.”
“My son's taking drum lessons, and my daughter's taking piano lessons. One day they're going to start a band.”
“I do belong on stage.”
“You marry somebody; you love everything about them. You grow to learn about them. You never learn everything.”
“I don't want to say I can't wait to get back to normal life, because I don't. I don't want to get back to normal life.”
“I was always in bands before, but on 'American Idol,' it was about getting my voice out there. It was always my goal, though, to get a band together again.”
“I will continue to pursue my music and live my life with my family.”

“I'd like to be a piano player.”
“For me, something will come in my head and I'll either end up calling my cell phone to record it, or I'll just pick my guitar up and see what comes out. Sometimes it sucks, sometimes it doesn't. So there's really no set method behind it.”

“In the '90s, guitar solos were dead.”
“There's going to be a flood of opportunities right now but I don't think I could really talk about them.”
