I have made stage adjustments which allow me to hear myself better onstage so that has made playing live much more enjoyable.

The other thing that has made playing live for me more enjoyable is the audience. I never knew I had such heartfelt, loving fans.

I prefer playing in the studio because you have much more control over things.

In the past, I have not been able to hear myself. I play with feeling so I need to hear what is coming out of the amplifier to inspire me; I don't just play mechanically.

I need to hear what I am doing in order to create the next note. If I don't hear it then I can't feed myself.
