If you really want something you just hang with it. We think our future's ahead and not behind.

My job is not babysitting people; my job is focusing on making the best band I possibly can.

The packaging has to really sell the product today, because kids can go out and buy a CD and then 10 kids can burn them. So you have to really be on your toes.

Baseball got into my blood early and I worked harder at it than anything.
