I think anyone would want to see their favorite band in a small club over a large stadium.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
To be honest, I think about the clubs when I write. But I should probably start thinking about stadiums, because the songs sound even better there - and bigger.
In those days a concert was a personal experience. I wanted to be as close as possible to the audience, and of course big stadiums didn't enable you to do that. It wasn't my style.
There's an amazing intimate feeling in a small club but an insane rush playing a stadium or festival.
I'd like to tour, but again, to tour my music now would take a bigger band.
Having bands in the NFL would take up seats. If you take up seats in the NFL, you're losing money.
Most recently we've been working in concert situations rather than clubs. because there aren't too many rooms there like Ronnie Scott's, that are pure music rooms, where people come specifically to listen to music.
If we could sell 100,000 units every album, that would rock. We'd have a big cult following, we'd have a built-in fanbase so we could pretty much play anywhere, people would show up and rock out.
If I could get bands to come and play in my house, I'd like that.
A lot of bands would be aching to be in the position we are.
As much as we love playing the small clubs, we'd really like to get ourselves in front of a larger audience. I'm not talking about arenas or anything, but nice theaters and larger clubs.
