One of the reasons we survive as a band is that we are seen as a band of today. We don't want to be seen as a band that tours and plays old songs. We feel that we are making the best music of our careers.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Being in a band is far more than playing an instrument. It's surviving. It's getting an album together.
I think music is so diverse today, and bands are so diverse. If you were a rock band in the Eighties, you kind of had to stick to one thing. Now, in this age of Coachella and European festivals and stuff, it's kind of anything goes, so that allowed us to try different things.
We're all music fans and we just love being in a band, and that's why we do it.
Right now, I've never been more impressed by the new bands that we meet. I may be 10, 20 years older, but we're all on the same page about culture, music and life.
I think we are looked upon as a veteran band.
If I go see a band, and they play, like, zero from any of their old albums, I'm very happy about that. I do not want to see the bands of my youth playing the songs of my youth. I hate that.
We're all continuing to grow up and get better as musicians, and the chemistry as a band continues to deepen.
I feel more confident about what we're doing as a band and what we're trying to do as a band and the way we're looking at it as a band.
We've worked very hard as a band and would like to think we've got this far on the strength of our music.
We're proud to be lifetime musicians and a band that lives like a band and loves the music and gives our lives to it.
