I'd better be on the road, or I'll be going nuts. I'm not the kind of guy who sits around with a pipe and slippers watching soap operas.
Timing is everything.
It is all about being open and paying attention to the music in your head. I think most people have original music playing in their heads from time to time.
When a song gets its legs and begins to come to me, this is the euphoric hook that keeps me wanting to continue.
If I have an idea, I write it down, although I usually carry a little dictation machine with me because I'm too lazy to write.
As a solo artist, I just felt cemented in front of the mike stand. There was very little time to play with the audience and be a band member.
