I think if you're able to make the music you want and you can do it in the right kind of context, you don't have to be a circus ringleader to be successful.

It's hard enough to make a good song and a good recording of that song. But to try to tailor it to some outside force is just like - It's never been a factor in what I've done or what the band's done.

No, I've heard over the years that it's nice for them to see somebody who's like, you know, a well-known successful musician who's Asian. I've heard it from a few musicians, too.

I'm happy doing different things. Being in a band is great, but being in a band can be difficult sometimes.
