We'll never ever be as good on record as we are live…
“We'll never ever be as good on record as we are live because we're not a full band unless those kids are there. We ride the ripples of that emotional tide like at a movie theatre. If there's any artistry to what I do, any gift that I have, its that somehow Ive been able to tap into that. People have told me that I guide it. I dont think so I think I ride it¦Thats what Ill miss most when its all over. But maybe Ill just go to more movies.”
