There's A Fine Line Between Character Building

I Tend To Write, Either Myself, Or I Sometimes Write With A Co-writer, My Friend That Lives Up The Road. It's Usually A Relatively Solitary Thing, But I Do Like Coming Up With Ideas.

I Suppose Ever Since I Was About 14, I Remember Listening To "sgt. Pepper's," And I Remember Thinking, "how Do You Possibly Write Songs Like That?" I Remember Starting To Try And Write Songs Around That Age, But Just Sitting Around With An Acoustic Guitar, And Try To Come Up With Ideas For Songs, And That's Just What I've Done Ever Since. I Just Never Really Stopped Doing That, I Suppose.

I Love Going Up The West Coast Of The U. S. Because It's One Of My Favorite Parts Of The World To Tour.

The Men At Work Thing Is Always There, It's Always Going To Be There. It's Not Something I Consciously Think That Much About Anymore. The Thing That Stays With You Is The Songs, Which Is A Good Thing For Me, Because The Songs Are The Things That Stand The Test Of Time.

As You Get Older You Don't Want To Just Do The Same Thing, Otherwise There's Not Much Point. I Think It's More Or Less Trying To Write Things That, Perhaps, Say More By Doing Less, Or You're Always Trying To Refine Things, Make Things A Little Simpler, A Little More Essential.
