Phish is such a good band; they just make stuff up as a jam band.

Luckily for me, I genuinely like my audience. They really are a good bunch.

Each of our 900 shows so far was different - maybe that's what makes the fans come back to our gigs time and again. And that they're always part of the show. Phish concerts are a communal experience.

I think that Phish has been a band, we've all had- I've had a great life growing up and everybody in my band's had a really good life, none of us have got anything to complain about at all.

But you can't really know your audiences so well.

I find a lot of up-and-coming musicians I enjoy, present them to my viewers - and hopefully inflate the growth of these artists by putting them in front an audience that wouldn't have been aware of them.

What's great about having an audience is they can let you know what they don't think is funny, and you can just cut that out and keep trying.

The audience, they're not professionals. They just love music. It isn't necessary to play over their heads to be admired.

I guess my idea of a good audience is one that's quiet and listens, but also that's alive: they respond, they're getting the jokes, they're with me. And that' s been happening.

There is always something wonderful about a live audience.
