When you have a model that's worked very well, it's very hard to change.
There is a terrible conservatism, like a cancer, right in the heartlands of music-making, a tremendous resistance to change, an absolute horror of the idea that more people might connect with music. That infuriates me more than I can say.

I don't think I'm going to change jobs at this point.
I have this firm belief that I am who I am for a reason. If I change something, I'm cheating myself of whatever it is I'm supposed to learn from my body. You know, I'm legally blind. I'm 20/750, since I was in fifth grade. I wear glasses and contacts...
I always take my time when picking out outfits at home, but I will say I can change pretty quick when I'm in a hurry.
