“If I could change one thing in my life right now, I would get a new car so that I could put everything in it—just me, my dog, my stuff—and we would travel the whole country. I want to see it all.”

“If I could change one thing in my life right now, I would get a new car so that I could put everything in it—just me, my dog, my stuff—and we would travel the whole country. I want to see it all.”
“Am I happy? I couldn’t be happier. Everything in life has given me the best, from my parents to all the people I’ve met here and everywhere. It’s all been f*cking awesome. Everything is great. Life is good.”
“MagFest, 3 years ago, I had a little mishap. Went to the hospital. Lost all my clothes, my purse, my everything. I didn’t have anything when I got to the hospital. I was kind of just sitting there like ‘F*ck, I don’t have a ride, I don’t have any money… how do I get back home?’ So the cops bring me back here, to Suwannee, they cut my wristband off and I’m freaking out because I have no idea where…”
“My most magical Suwannee moment: I was camping with a friend, and I told her that I never wanted to be in a finger trap of any kind. For some reason I just said it. And then later we found a rug on the hill, so we decided to roll up in it and roll down the hill. Then when we were trying to get out, we couldn’t get out—we were in a giant finger trap. It just happened, we had the conversation and then we got stuck in a finger trap. Then yesterday my pocket came to life and just dragged me around all over the place.”
“If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow, I would definitely pick Costa Rica, because it’s very cheap to live and it’s a gorgeous area. It’s really cultural and diverse, there are a lot of travelers that go through there.” “Have you been there before?” “I haven’t. I’ve heard a lot about it, haven’t actually gone, but I plan to. I want to hit up the country first, see most of the states—that’s important, ya know?—then I’ll make my way down there eventually.”
“I absolutely love Spirit of Suwannee Music Park, every time I come here I meet new beautiful people and no matter what time of year you come the park is absolutely beautiful. I’m thrilled to be able to volunteer with the Green Team this year and give back to this place that I love so much and that has given me so much.”
“I realized this year while I was traveling on tour—as I was trying to become a better person and help people all over America, ya know?—that my true goal was to inspire other people to want to help people. I want to try and unite everybody, that’s my life purpose and goal.”
“The song to describe my life at this moment is ‘This Must Be The Place’ by the Talking Heads.”
“If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning, it would have to be next to that beautiful lake right here in the Spirit of Suwannee. If only we had one more day of Bear Creek left…”
“Let’s go to MagicLand.”
“If I could wake up anywhere in the world tomorrow morning, it would be at the Spirit of Suwannee music park, because it is Bear Creek weekend right now and I look forward to this shit every single year. That feeling you get when you’re at a festival, you’re immersed in it, and then you think about the next day and realize that you don’t have to travel across the country again, you get to stay exactly where you are! Everything stays in place, more artists come to you and do their thing for you to celebrate with the people around you. That’s kind of the best feeling there is, ya know? There is no need to look forward to the future because the present and the future are equally delicious, so you’re already set up for success.”
“Peace, happiness and fun.”
“When I started high school, I went to an art school where we would do musical productions. One year it was Charlie Brown, so I tried out for it and got Schroeder instead of Charlie Brown, which I was really sad about. So then I heard about this huge theater company in Media, Pennsylvania that was doing a ‘Your a Good Man, Charlie Brown’ production, so I went up there, tried out, and got it! I think that was the proudest moment of my life, when I got to be Charlie Brown.”
“I’m happy because I’m alive.”
“The world is a sigh in the mind and the eye of a wizard who can’t cast a spell—OR—The world is a sigh in the mind and the eye of a wizard who casts his first spell. It depends on what mood you’re in that day.”
