I don't really have that much control over where I play. I put out parameters and I accept what I can. If it's really low, or I had a bad experience at a place then I usually don't play there again.

If I practice I'll really alienate people.

I don't know where I'm going, and I don't care where I'm going. As long as I can just do it.

I have great samples of my drums and I try to program them pretty much how I want to play them, try and make it feel natural even though it's programmed.

In America there are some places that are just gorgeous to play.

I don't think I really started to seriously compose until around that time when I was 40.

The best thing is to find something you really love to do and enjoy that process for the rest of your life.
