So I think to perform in front of people really illustrates how bad and how good some of your music can be. That song that seemed just a little bit weird or that you never liked much or that you felt a little bit shy about because it's not what you normally do can sometimes be really well received. It doesn't matter what kind of music it is because it's theater. You're on a stage, even if it is a little bar and you're playing next to some people playing pool. You're on one side of the room as the performer, and they're an audience member.
People can have emotional, uptight feelings about their material.
And if you are only playing in a studio or in your bedroom, and you don't do it in front of people you'll never discover your golden moments and your not so golden moments. I guess we got to keep doing that. Fascination from doing it in an old-fashioned way, but it just so happens that it is economically good. You spend a lot less time recording if you're just playing live rather than recording everything separately, which takes four or five times as long. So it works out for me because we generally spend less money than we normally would have.
