The smartest thing I've done for my kids is writing a song about a holiday. Every year after that, even after I'm gone, they'll get a small check from the play it gets around the Fourth.

I think the first older artist I related to and loved was Bowie.

Being with my kids is really important to me, being a good dad and being around a lot.

I'm in control of my musical career, which means more than awards and record sales. And that freedom is exactly what my dad fought for, too.

Me and my wife watch laser discs, and I collect old computers. And one of my regular models is a 1993 computer with Windows 98 on it. I just love old technology, and I don't know what you would call that. I'm just stuck in 1991, '92.

There was something about Hank Williams, Jr. that I really latched onto from an early age.

You know, when I was younger I was into all kinds of art - drawing, painting, all that stuff. But I played drums, played piano forever.

I would be happy to be a footnote in my dad's bio. I don't care about trying to be famous or prove that I didn't need him. Even if they say I'm riding his coattails, I'm confident enough in my own music that I don't worry about that.

I misfired and said some things in the past about people, namely John Mayer. And I didn't have the guts to apologize.

I feel comfortable in my own skin writing about the things that I like because I know that there are other people out there that understand what I'm talking about.
