I think as long as you're being creative and finding your own work interesting, that's all that matters.
The days of an open mic night when I'd rock up in an old jumper are over.
I've always known my own mind, and I'm not shy about speaking it.
I go to a club to relax and hear the music on a big sound system. I don't go to pull a guy.
I make music, and if people like it, they like it, and some people won't.
Someone asked me the other day what my favourite record shop was, and I said YouTube.
