The mindset of the people who put the shows on and those who go buy a ticket is so fundamentally different. The band themselves don't have a sense of things, and I found this out after a lot of years of pain and frustration.

I'm swamped with input. I want input, but I am so far behind on what I got here that I can't keep up with what people are sending me.

I want everyone to be able to have the same experience through the music as me. It's important to get it out.

I'm in a state of learning, and I don't have any set-in-stone ideas about what shows or even what eras I want to pursue.

There are enough painful experiences that go along with this trip that it keeps me in reality. It ain't all gems and roses.
