I don't feel [the] excitement you have when you first walk into a recording studio. It now feels like a tool.

I still get stage fright every time. I also feel very, very sleepy about a minute before we go on. Like I feel like I'm going to fall asleep. I can't explain it. It's sort of like, "Where's the energy going to come from to play this show?" Then all of a sudden you step up and there it is, it's like it's waiting for you.

You feel the camaraderie that you're all driving around in vans, you know, engaged in musical enterprise. It's pretty much the same for everybody except for the 40 minutes that you're on the stage. Other than that, I do feel like we're off on our own path. It's sort of exciting.

I don't consider myself a very religious person in any.

It's not like I'm narrating stories with music behind them. It's all kind of one thing. You hope you can provoke a specific emotional reaction, but in ways that aren't quite plain.

It's a very different feeling just sitting around the side, playing piano, and dancing around as opposed to standing in front and singing.

I get more excited about like, "How nice is the piano?" or "How does the room sound?" I don't really see the gear so much anymore.
