You have a different crowd every night, so you should do a different show to suit them. I tailor the show to their mood.

I never want to play a show where it feels overly programmed, processed, and all that. For anybody that comes to one of our shows, the goal for me is to make sure that's their show. That nobody else is going to see that show ever again. You know what I mean? I try to make it different every day.

I never try and do the same show, ever. The audience controls the dynamic of the shows. Sometimes they listen, and sometimes they ask a million questions.

I really enjoy getting to go and play on other people's shows for an episode or two. It adds such variety to my repertoire.

I've never been on a TV show for more than a season and you have to continually keep it interesting and you have to keep it connected, even as you change.

I just do my thing and try each show to be more honest about why I am and who I am. It's quite tricky and actually nerve-racking to do that. It's kind of a happy train wreck.

I still enjoy performing, whether it's in front of two people or 2,000 people, but it's not fun once you leave the big show.

For me, a show's a show. I try to put on the best show I can for whatever audience or time slot I get.

One thing that took a while to really adjust to was, you do it for the the art, for the money, for being together and having a good time, but you do it for all those people out there who really care about the show. We are now talking about a show we did over 20 years ago.
