Like When I'm Singing Live I Can't Hear Myself. I'm Just Listening To The Rest Of The Band. To Listen To My Voice, It Doesn't Even Feel Like It's Me.

I Toured For 13 Years, And It Was Very Lonely, And It Was Hard Work. I'm Not Afraid Of Hard Work, Especially If It's For Stuff That I Enjoy. But I Actually Don't Think You Could Name One Artist Who Enjoys Promo Or Touring After The First Three To Six Months Of An Album Cycle.

I Think It Would Be Very Difficult To Maintain One Kind Of Art Or Whatever For Your Whole Life. I Think It's Unrealistic.

I Get To Sit At Home With The Dogs On The Sofa, Record In A Closet In The Office, Send Them Off And, If I'm Lucky, Make A Million Dollars.
