I like interacting with human beings, so being on stage feels like a larger version of that - kind of like throwing a party.

I think I feel vulnerable most of the time. I feel on guard. I've gotten pretty good at putting my fists down and kind of allowing the world to be, so that I don't feel threatened as much.

I feel vulnerable a lot interacting with human beings and being honest with people, and if I read their energy kind of not getting or shutting me down or this feeling of where we're not connecting, that's kind of a vulnerable place for me.

It's amazing, the look in your eyes, like you could save me, but you won't even try

I know that human beings are better together than they are apart, as much as I fought that all my life.

It's like a spiritual elevation that occurs when you're playing and becoming one with the instrument or players on the stage.

Every day is the start of something beautiful.
