The fifth member of my band is my non-profit work.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Most bands are commercial enterprises. But I'm not in one of those bands.
I've been part of five different bands in my time.
I'm not a great band member; I'm more of a band leader.
We try and stay out of the corporate side of it. The band has never compromised. At some point in our career we could have made a certain type of record and sold millions of units, as they are called.
I'm always put in the unfortunate position of asking people to donate money and people I know in bands to play benefit concerts and all this stuff.
It's almost charity work, what people have done, turning other people on to my music.
You know, my background, I was at a non-profit for years.
If you're the band leader you ask more of yourself than anyone else, so they tend to raise the bar for me.
I have a few personal ambitions for the band.
I owe everything to the musicians I work with.
