I love to go on tour and perform. I love all the parts of the process.

I love doing concert music.

I like touring, I like being in the studio, a bit of both. I like to have a bit of time at home as well.

I much prefer touring to anything else. Studio work is great, and can be hugely satisfying, but live work has the excitement and the lifestyle that I love.

Concert repertoire is some of the most beautiful music ever written, and I frequently seek out opportunities to perform it.

My band is so dedicated, everybody works very hard. The No. 1 priority is the show, and it's pretty cool because we all pull together, and it's fun. It's like being on a sports team or something.

The music is fun. The big difference performing it live is that we might get a little more heated, not as subdued, we'll stretch things out more. It's how you stay fresh after such a long time in the business.

I like performing. I like partnering with an audience.

I perform in the major leagues of what I do. It's incredible.

It's really exciting and kind of special, especially having our own band. It's just completely different.
