Our parents helped us, or we wouldn't be here. Lacy Van Zant and my mother used to sign for amps or loan us money to GET to the gig or TAKE us in their CAR. It's just like little sports guys - Little LEAGUE and football players - whose parents help them. That's why they get good.

My FAVORITE SIX WORDS in recovery are: TRUST God, clean HOUSE, and help others.

I WANT to GO to Mexico. I've been stonewalled, so far, by federal officials. I want to go to Mexico, and I want to meet with the top Mexican officials.
