I think with the live shows it's giving you that opportunity to do something on stage that you don't normally do.

The songs that give you the most trouble become your best songs.

You’re allowed to believe in a god. You’re allowed to believe unicorns live in your shoes for all I care. But the day you start telling me how to wear my shoes so I don’t upset the unicorns, I have a problem with you. The day you start involving the unicorns in making decisions for this country, I have a BIG problem with you.

You go through that stage where you're coming up with the concept, ideas and all that you need to make a record. It always feels like hard labor.
