Jazz Can Be So Serious, No Sense

I Just Played At A Club In L.a. Called The Baked Potato. It Fits Like 90 People. It's Like Playing Somewhere In A Basement In, Like, Indiana Or Somewhere Where All Your Friends Show Up. It's Really Fun And There's A Very Different Energy To That Than To Play To 50,000 At A Tokyo Baseball Stadium.

The Juxtaposition Of Words - The Color, Feeling, And Sound Of The Words Together - Has As Much To Do With The Story As The Narrative Itself Does.

For Live You Need A Microphone For The Snare And The High Hat, The Kick Drum, A Nice Stereo Overhead And One For The Toms - You Can Get Away With Using Four Mikes.

People Who Come Up To Me Are Drummers Or Fans Of The Band. I Don't Get It Too Much, But I'll Be Somewhere And Someone Will Have Me Take A Picture Or Something.

Family Time Is Really Important To Me.
