"One time at the Torn Curtain, there was a big night, mostly the after-hours type of crowd. Most of the night would be DJs which keep everyone happy, but me and a couple of the other guys who lived there went on did a kind of electronics-and-drums live improv noise set. I guess it started pissing off some people. >>
"This huge Juggalo-type guy in a suit right up front starts yelling at me and trying to get my attention while I'm playing. I thought, 'Shit, this guy is gonna clobber me.' I was already pretty high on mushrooms and I had a baseball bat onstage, just for peace of mind, so I felt pretty safe. So I just bring him up on stage and give him some drumsticks and get him banging on the drums while I bat someone's shoes into the audience. And he had a great time!

It's like, you want to create chaos with your shows but bring people into it rather than push them away."
