I never talk about my wife: we're both in public professions but we try to keep our private life private.

When the lights go down, that's 30,000 peoples lives colliding. Everyone there working is working for that moment, everyone watching is watching for that moment. It's when you're all in agreement about what you're all doing so it's a wonderful feeling of togetherness and possibility.

Even though the album is an endangered species, can we try and make a coherent and good one, even if it's like making a horse and cart at a Nascar conference?

I don't mind not being cool.

I don't mean to sound like a cheap prostitute, but you can call me what you like.

It's more egalitarian on the Internet - anyone can put anything up. But in terms of the money it takes to allow a band to get good, there's less of it to invest.

Anything that we think is incredible and beautiful and wonderful, we ascribe to something that we don't know what it is.
