One of the things about being a boy, especially growing up without a father, is you really don't have that role model to teach you how to do things.

I like older people; I think older people have a lot of flavor.

My goal is to make my kids as happy as possible.

I still fall back a lot on my Les Paul, and there is just no getting away from a Les Paul and a hot pickup.

I never really had male influences in my life. Steady, male influences. And that's what I wanna be for my family. As a musician, I definitely will attain everything that I set out to. I work very hard. But more important to me is that my family is taken care of.

I have had many more close women friends than men, and I've always assumed that comes from the fact that in my family there was such a disproportionate female element.

I love my 'Walking Dead' family. This is the best job I ever had.

I had a lovely childhood. For family holidays, we went as far as the car could take us - we would drive to Florida, even though it would take three days. I didn't know we didn't have a lot of money because there was always food on the table. I didn't have a lot of stuff, but I did figure skating for a long time, and I always had my skates.
