Quote

I relate to the audiences and they know me. It's pretty real.

I feel like what I owe my audience is what I'm most passionate about.

You've got to keep your finger on the pulse of what your audience is thinking, and know what they'll accept from you.

I have the audience I deserve. Or at least I have the audience that represents the kind of people that I like.

We try to connect with the audience as much as we can. We feel the energy from the audience, and it gives us so much joy and inspiration.

The thing I fail to do is fully comprehend what's given back to me by the audience. You would think you would be a performer partly so you could feel all the appreciation or adulation, but I haven't quite managed that yet.

I think of the audience the way I would think of another person: You meet someone, then you take it from there; you see what's interesting to both of you.

To me, it's important to try and make an emotional connection with the audience.

You got to have an emotional connect with the audience who watch you.

I feel a big obligation to the audience, almost in a moral sense, to say something useful. If I'm going to spend a year of my life on these things, I want something that I feel that strongly about.
