About 10 years ago, I took some vocal lessons. I'll bet that helped. I got a tape of exercises that the girl gave me, which I don't do anymore, but they were good. And I don't smoke. Dan Hicks
I had different bands. I played with the Acoustic Warriors for the most part, without girl singers. It was the same kind of sound, acoustic guitar, bass, with violin and sometimes accordion, and the guys would sing, that kind of thing. Dan Hicks
And it really is a good feeling to get up there and make that sound. I'm not stuck in a time warp, because I can use as many of the old songs as I want to, just the favorites. Dan Hicks
Right now, I'm thinking in terms of just having a good band, man. Having a good act for the stage. Being a good performer, you know? Connected to that is future recordings, and future tunes, that kind of stuff. Dan Hicks

I guess my idea of a good audience is one that's quiet and listens, but also that's alive: they respond, they're getting the jokes, they're with me. And that' s been happening. Dan Hicks
There's been a big buzz about the Charlatans in the last couple of years. I've heard the word Charlatans more in the last few years than I'd heard it for the previous 20 years. People would interview me for years and never even mention the Charlatans. Dan Hicks
Dan Hicks quote: "There's some pictures of me playing hollow bodies, but I never..."
There's some pictures of me playing hollow bodies, but I never last long. I always come back to the acoustic. Dan Hicks
I was always looking to record, but how much I actually pursued it was another thing. The major labels weren't that interested in me, and the smaller labels didn't have any money to do anything. Dan Hicks
I haven't been drinking for years now. Something's got to give. I don't mind that I'm a guy that's stopped drinking, though this interview is making me mighty thirsty. Dan Hicks
Dan Hicks quote: "I don't think I'd want a revival. I'm not doing a tribute to..."
I don't think I'd want a revival. I'm not doing a tribute to myself. Dan Hicks
Dan Hicks quote: "There've been periods where I had to convince the audience or..."
There've been periods where I had to convince the audience or win them over. Dan Hicks
Dan Hicks quote: "It's not about retro or modern, it's about this note or that..."
It's not about retro or modern, it's about this note or that note, which sounds better? Dan Hicks
Dan Hicks quote: "I don't dictate the solos and I don't dictate the vocal..."
I don't dictate the solos and I don't dictate the vocal harmonies. Dan Hicks
