(Quotes from Jonny)
"If I woke up tomorrow with no arms, for some strange reason...I guess I'd learn how to play the guitar with my feet. I've seen a guy do it so I know its possible."
"Playing the blues is what I want to do. I made the decision several years ago, actually, and no matter what happens, I'll be playing music. If I have to play by myself for tips on the street corner, I'll keep doing it."
"Its weird. I guess you're close to your family when you can just look at one of your sisters and bust out laughing"
"I would say to any kid whose parents are going through a divorce--and I know this sounds cliche because everyone says it, but its really not your fault."
"Where I learned was playing with musicians who have been around a long time and who basically kick my butt."
"I played barefoot the day I found out Luther Allison had died. I was kinda bummed out that day and I went out onstage with a tank top and these leather pants--these crazy leather pants, just barefoot. I think I played one of the best shows I've ever played that night. After that it just seemed so much more natural to play barefoot."
"That was a dumb idea."
"I started playing guitar when I was 13. You first pick up a guitar and it feels like, uh, you've got this new attachment on your body. It feels really awkward. It's supposed to be like having a 3rd arm."
"Jessica's starting to scare me, she's getting really good on guitar."
"Getting to open up for people like B.B. King, Aerosmith, Keb Mo and Buddy Guy is flattering just to share the same stage with them."
"I got to sit in with B.B. King one night. I could have died after that and my life would have been complete."
"My girlfriend Haylie is really great. Calling her a girlfriend sounds really shallow, like a little fling you have. She's not like that at all...she's like my best friend."
"My age is not even an issue to me."
"Man, that was cool."
"My biggest heroes and influences are probably Prince, Stevie Wonder, and Otis Redding along with B.B. King and Albert Collins."
"I'm in this for the long haul. I feel like I'm a lifer."
