People have a hard time going to a club and seeing this business tool on stage that's wholly indicative of everything that rock is not. Rock is not about sitting in an office setting up documents, yet they see someone on stage doing that.

I use a laptop more as a tool, as sort of the central artery. Everything goes through the digital audio card of my computer, but if I had my druthers I'd do everything in dedicated hardware.

I can only stand to sit in front of my computer for three or four hours a day. Otherwise it can get really soul-sucking.

The computer does things that can't be done with hardware, like freezing sounds.

I don't want to rewrite history.

I rarely assess live shows after I play them.
