I like being on stage. I love seeing new cities and returning to cities that I love. It can be a little tiring because you don't sleep in your own bed, you're in a different hotel every night and the hours are really strange, which, for me, kind of works out because I'm a bit nocturnal in general.

If a song is cooking in the studio, that's great, but if I can imagine doing it on stage, that's the next level to me. ...

That's when I start to kind of evaporate into the universe.
