It is not very practical in today's world when you tour all over the place having a big band.

Playing for someone else's crowd is always difficult for any band.

It's not important to how the band functions or to what we do. That's just many people's opinions on what they see. A lot of people project stuff on you, but that's okay.

Having a visual element to your band is a good thing.

Sometimes the problem is not the people in the band, but the people around the band.

It's a lot more comfortable, I must say. Ummm, I didn't think I'd be playing with another band, I kinda thought I was through with that, but I make an exception because they're nice people.

The funny thing is that when you have any form of presentation to your band, meaning you have the foresight to see outside of your creativity, you have a bigger vision.

Sometimes I don't want to be in the confines of what a band seems to provide.

I was really sick of bands just ignoring the audience as a posture in rock music. And I think we fed off each other in terms of trying to engage the audience, not in a hammy way, but actually trying to be aware of the space that you are playing in and trying to connect in some way through the music.

People make such a big deal about how people in bands look, especially if you're a girl.
