[quote ]So did you not enjoy playing big venues when you supported bands like Radiohead and Death Cab For Cutie ?

No, supporting is awesome. You’re like the MC or the court jester – there’s no pressure on your shoulders and you just warm people up and have a good night. Sometimes it’s a challenge to understand people’s audiences but usually I can figure it out.[/quote]
