Most young people haven't used their storytelling skills since they were 8 or 9 or 10 and wanted to persuade Mom and Dad to take them to the ball game.
My dad always told me that the best way to get somebody to get at you is to talk bad about them to somebody else.
My dad always told me that anyone's voice is just another instrument added to the music.
David and Dad didn't get along too well growing up. I mean we all got along, but it was harder on David, because David wasn't going to be the son that Dad wanted. But now they're like best friends.
Mom and Dad would stay in bed on Sunday morning, but the kids would have to go to church.
I wanted my children to have the same exposure to the water I had. My strongest memories of Northeast Harbor are going in a small Whaler with my dad, looking for osprey.
My dad was a musician, it was just what he did, like another guy's dad drives a meat truck. Our house was normal. We weren't taken with the fact our dad was a musician.
My dad has a really great record collection that basically went up to the year I was born: 1984.
My dad grew up in a working-class Jewish neighbourhood, and I got a scholarship from my dad's union to go to college. I went there to get an education, not as an extension of privilege.
My dad was a musician. He was a singer and he played the guitar, so music was always around.
