Democratic, Republican members of Congress get along fine.

We hung out a lot together. We went and saw films together. It was really actually quite easy.

I've worked with a variety of presidents over the years on both sides of the aisle and congressmen and senators, so I'm not into trying to demonize anybody. It used to be that people would fight like hell on the floor of the house and they'd go have a beer together. Now it's like you're radioactive if you talk to the other side, which keeps us from getting anything done. I'm an independent personally, and I vote for who I believe will make the biggest difference.

I think when you hear good music or the experience you have to the music which makes you remember it, it's so priceless.
