"I love how talented Dave is; he plays so good it's unreal. For us, Dave has tied it all together. He puts in the little extraneous stuff in songs that was missing. He helped us to be able to play the songs closer to the way we produced them on the records. Hes just dripping with soul." -Johnny Rzeznik, Goo Goo Dolls
"Dude, You have the most amazing voice!" - Pink
"Ya did alright, kid." - Bo Diddley
