Every time I got to play a show, even if it's already sold out, I'm so scared no one's going to come.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Shows have been sold out. It's overwhelming, you know. I had no idea what to expect with this new sound and everything and just to see so many people just come out and embrace it, it's overwhelming.
No one comes to my shows so they'll feel safe and comfortable.
Actually, we've done 75 of these shows and every one of them has sold out. But then we buy all the tickets.
All the times I've been lucky enough to be a part of a show that's actually gotten on the air, it's always that same mixture of excitement and utter fear.
After all these years, I still get nervous in front of people. I can't help it. I just, you know, I want it to be a good show, and I want people to get their money's worth.
Every show that sells out is like a hero's welcome for me.
I lived to be on stage, and I'm terrified. Terrified before every show.
I'm scared of audiences. One show in Amsterdam I was so nervous, I escaped out the fire exit. I've thrown up a couple of times. Once in Brussels, I projectile vomited on someone. I just gotta bear it. But I don't like touring. I have anxiety attacks a lot.
Every time you have to come up with a new body of work for a new show, you're aware that people are just ready to rip you apart, they're just waiting for you to fall or make the slightest trip up.
My big fear is that I'll put down so many people, I'll have to leave show biz.
