«The musicians are in these 8-foot-by-8-foot boxes with kind of a 70-percent screen on them, and they are covered on all four sides with lights inside of the boxes. You can only see them if they light up from the inside. Sometimes there are video projections on the boxes, so you don't see the whole show and you are totally relying on your ears. I use headphones more on this tour than I ever have because I can't see exactly what they are playing. I've never had to mix blind like that. They'll start off visible, then the lighting changes and they can't see each other either. They are playing strictly off of trust and vibe.»

«I got the TLA-50s when I was working with Common two years ago, and I've been very happy with them. I wanted something that was transparent, that worked without coloring the sound. The Summit unit allowed me to have the vocals pop through, where they are fat and clear, but still in control. That's what I needed: a little more color control to help place things in the mix.»

«(Cycling) is your first freedom. It is your first independence. I still feel that way when I get on my bike today.»
