Values

Artist

Life

Art
"You find yourself in this place where you really get to find out what you're made of, and what I found was that when I was at my time of greatest need, there were people who appeared in my life, and helped me through it."
Time

Purpose
"When you keep the caliber of musicians very high in the band, people are going to come and go. Some of them will be people who have to try various things, it's natural."
