I'm the kind of guy that if I go to a concert and hear something that knocks me out, I don't want to be left out of that. I'm going to try to get into that, and I'm running back home to practice.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love pulling people into concert halls who might not otherwise go and getting their ears tuned.
I'm not good at interacting with people and am terrified to get onstage, so I just go up there, freak out and, most of the time, pack up and go home immediately after.
I try to be careful not to do single concerts where I fly out, do my show, turn around and go home.
For a long time, I couldn't actually deal with playing concerts; it was a totally alien concept to me, 'cause I was used to playing in clubs and dance halls.
If you've never been to one of my concerts. I want you to know that it is OK to scream and yell.
And when I perform on my own tour, I have to talk myself into going out on that stage every single night.
When I'm in the studio, I like to be in there by myself because if I'm in the mike room, and I look out and see people talking, or they're not nodding their head or rocking to the music, it makes me feel like it don't sound good, or I'll be scared to really open up vocally because I might mess up, and they might be in there laughing.
I'm not going to play lead guitar in a concert hall full of people, because I'm going to mess up a lot.
When I perform, I like to immerse myself in the music, and I just try to get off on the diversity of music.
I'm not a huge practicer, which is probably not a good thing because my band definitely needs to practice.
