I have my ideas, I have my music and I also just enjoy showing off, so that`s a big part of it. Also, I like to get up onstage and behave insanely or express myself physically, and the band can get pretty silly.
I hadn`t performed by myself in a while. It feels very natural to me, and I assume people come for the very same reasons as they do when I`m with the band: to be moved, for something to happen to them.
I do a lot of curiosity buying; I buy it if I like the album cover, I buy it if I like the name of the band, anything that sparks my imagination. I still like to go to record stores, I like to just wander around and I`ll buy whatever catches my attention.
