In life, be a participant, not a spectator.
Sitting at the table doesn't make you a diner, unless you eat some of what's on that plate.
It's important not to lay in a bubble bath drinking champagne. It's important to take part in what life's all about.
Whenever my kids have a tournament, or something going on, I make it a point to make sure I'm there for them every step of the way. That's real important to me.
I just never wanted to be too much in the background. I always wanted to be a part of things.
Music is not a spectator sport, you have to be involved - fully involved - or you get left behind.
I was a really involved dad - not because I'm such a wonderful person. I like being a dad.
There's nothing like being involved with a team that can go that distance.
I don't want to be that person who's looking squarely at the shortcomings in the process right where I sit and then choose to walk away and do nothing.
If the right thing comes along and you get an opportunity to be a part of something you believe in, and you think it's cool and want to put your name on it, then you should.
