The McLain Festival always draws a good, solid crowd of music enthusiasts, and they're a real pleasure to play for. ... We're always happy to perform there.

Like carnivores to carnal pleasures
As are we to desperate measures.

Of course, there are many, many musicians whose music gives me pleasure, but until I make contact with them, musically or personally, I never assume that anything wonderful will happen.

Who pleases one against his will.
