And the goal really is to make the audience laugh, to bring them some joy.

I do not like sports, unless you consider treating all humankind with love and respect a sport.

It was actually 3 years between albums. That seems like a long time to me

I'd rather send out a mass email then hang posters all over the place

If I'm at a party and someone puts on a Blues Brothers tape, I tend to go nuts.

I want a room that I can definitely pack out. I don't want to sweat that part, "Am I gonna have enough people?" So I usually pick like a hundred, a relatively small room. Also, I'm looser in a small room. I don't want to record an album in front of a thousand people, not that I could draw a thousand, but I just want a room that I can really work back to front. That's just a very comfortable place for me to be loose.

I don't feel I'm even worthy of a normal amount of value.
