I think The Grateful Dead kind of represents the spirit of being able to go out and have an adventure in America at large.

You can't just play the way The Grateful Dead plays without working at it. It's not something that is easy or just happened to us. There was a long, slow process that brought that into being.

You can't ride the rails anymore in this country, but you can follow the Grateful Dead.

I have all the patience in the world about Sirens. For me it's not a Grateful Dead project, it's a Me project.

It was kind of a prodding myself to play I Walk The Line straight.

A live concert to me is exciting because of all the electricity that is generated in the crowd and on stage. It's my favorite part of the business - live concerts.
