I grew up in a farm town in Indiana. In the early years I played by myself, because there were no other musicians around.

I know of musicians who have played together for decades who hate each other. The Modern Jazz Quartet for one.

I grew up around the corner from my grandparents' dairy farm, which was three miles outside of a small town called Phoenix.

I consider myself a Texan. I grew up in Texas and Oklahoma.

I grew up on a dairy and beef farm.

I grew up in a refinery town in Texas, and we weren't fancy enough to have a McDonald's.
