I could have took the easy way and just been a cowboy, looking good, trying to make my money off Hank Williams and being this clean-cut guy. But I always wanted to be myself and go against the grain.
There's a lot of different moods that come across in my shows. Even when I'm playing a slow waltz song, sometimes there's crowd-surfing. Most of the time there's a mosh pit.
My relationship with my dad will always be strained, but that just goes to show, I guess, that I'm doin' a pretty good job of bein' myself, and bein' a rebel.
I was always a Pink Floyd fan, and I was always into movie soundtracks.
We're bringing together the country folks and the rockers.
My mom was always playing Elvis around the house or ZZ Top, so there was always rock-n-roll and country being played.
