The reception on 'P2' has been crazy. Every show on the tour has been sold-out. I didn't think people were gonna catch on to it that quick because I started the tour the same day it came out.
As a former Mod my love affair with fashion has never waned and whenever I go on tour I am always desperate to hit the shops as soon as possible.
My first tour sold out in Glasgow, and they were one of the loudest. I couldn't hear myself.
We saw a need to develop a community for artists to get their music out to the masses. With MySpace, when they went out on tour, they could actually tour nationally. The band might have 20,000 friends on their list and send out a bulletin saying, 'I'm going to be in Austin on Tuesday night. Come see our show.'
We still have a very good core following, and the shows have been almost one hundred percent sold out.
I am an extremely private person. I always feel that I come across as a caricature of myself whenever I do interviews.
Whenever I'm on a book tour, one of the questions I always get asked is what to wear to various occasions.
Writing is a solitary journey, so I am always excited to go out on book tour and meet readers one-on-one.
It is such an unimaginable honor to be sharing the light yet again with Beyonce on her sold out Mrs. Carter Show World Tour. This is a blessing that I do not take lightly.

The thing that has led me to the place that I am is that every moment in my life, I've been following my dream: following my dream to go to the University of Toronto, following my dream to get my Ph.D., following my dream to work in Hollywood.
Whenever I come across an Arabic word mired in English text, I am momentarily shocked out of the narrative.
Following Christ means following him through life, following him in every word and gesture, following him out of one clime into another.
I've been sober for two-and-a-half years, My children are happy. In August, my wife and I will celebrate our fifteenth wedding anniversary. My band is back together with a sold-out tour.
On tour I feel like it's always so go go...you're always just taking in and storing information and feelings and things. So for me I need time off to let all those things come out and settle.
