I think initially, our audiences were filled with young men. You know, our initial audience was a lot of young guys who I think were trying to – who you played a bit of a big brother role for and were trying to sort out a lot of the same things right – soon as “Born To Run” hit, you know? So it was something that I worked pretty hard on.

After ‘Born to Run,’ I had a reaction to my good fortune. With success, it felt like a lot of people who’d come before me lost some essential part of themselves. My greatest fear was that success was going to change or diminish that part of myself.

“Born To Run,” that expands every time we go out. It just seems to you – more of your life fills it in, fills in the story. And when we hit it every night, it’s always a huge catharsis. It’s fascinating to see the audience singing it back to me. It’s quite wonderful, you know, to see people that intensely singing your song.

…It’s all sort of dreams and it’s all illusion. It’s theater; it’s not real. We’re making up stories, you know, and people tend to run into you and believe you are your characters. And I suppose the funny thing is the longer you go, you do become sort of some version of [your characters]. You both diverge from them – you know – you live, but you also permanently inhabit that geography and that mental space – and so you do morph a little bit. We do become what we imagine.

Everyone has talent. What is rare is the courage to follow that talent to the dark place where it leads. Erica Jong To Cowardly Lion:”As for you my fine friend, you are a victim of disorganized thinking. You are under the unfortunate delusion that simply because you run away from danger, you have no courage. You’re confusing courage with wisdom.Frank Morgan as the Wizard of Oz “Courage faces fear and thereby masters it.”Martin Luther King, Jr. “These days I’m feeling all right’cept I can’t tell my courage from my desperation

The way you hold the bow, the way that violinists are trained to produce a note, is really different. I’m not an expert in classical music. I don’t want to say something that ends up in print and somebody comes running after me with a shovel, but they’re taught for each note to stand alone in a very deliberate kind of way, which is really different than how notes are strung together in old-time music to create rhythm.

Life is an ever-flowing process and somewhere on the path some unpleasant things will pop up – it might leave a scar, but then life is flowing, and like running water, when it stops it grows stale. Go bravely on, my friend, because each experience teaches us a lesson. Keep blasting because life is such that sometimes it is nice and sometimes it is not.
