Status Updates From World Within a Song: Music ...

Ask any band that's toured with us in the last ten years or so. I think I freak a lot of them out when they get offstage showering them with praise and encouragement. I mean it, too. It's such an honor to be a witness to someone else's art. Letting them know that all of the heart and soul they've put into their work is bright and visible is the least I can do.

Feeling ownership of music you didn't make through the simple act of investing yourself into it will always be more real to me than whatever goes on at the New York Stock Exchange.

God, how I dreamed about one day standing up for myself, unafraid of not fitting in.
