Yeah, I can't separate the art from the music and the music from the art. I think that stems from going to school for film first, and kind of stumbling onto music as my career.

I feel like there's a hunger in the culture now for the live experience maybe as a counterpoint to the more sort of synthetic lives that we've been living.

You have to open up on stage.

I love bass, I really do. Bass is ace!

I try to sing whatever the music makes me feel. And we play so much music from the other records at shows that I hope no one will miss the old style too much.

My onstage persona really is a persona, you know, and really the moment I step onstage, it kind of kicks into gear.

I was just totally taken by Michael Jackson when I was a little kid, like everyone else.
