I do most of my work on the stage, and typically once the show is over, it's over.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most of my career has been about standing on a stage performing music to an audience, and once the show is over, they go home and I go on to the next show.
I like to spend as much time on the stage as possible. I don't do a regular TV series because I don't want to be overexposed.
I have never wanted to give up performing on stage, but one day the tours will be over.
But that's one of the nice things about doing a stage show, if something doesn't work out, you have the luxury of working on it over time.
You have a new audience for every show. Even though you do the same thing all the time, you gotta keep it fresh for yourself, and you gotta keep it good and interesting and something you want to do. I'm anxious to have a really terrific act. Whatever it takes it takes.
To be honest, I don't know really what I do on stage.
I love the stage - the fact that you only have one take to get it right, the interaction with the audience, and how every show is different even though you're doing the same thing.
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.
I like to talk while I'm on stage. It makes the show more personal. With that said, it's got to stay within reason or it's annoying.
When I have a bad show, I can't wait until I can get back on stage to forget about it.
