Fortunately, economic viability has never been the point (not that it wouldn't be swell if lots of people bought the stuff). We fully realize that what we do is not mass consumption, mainstream music. Really, we just try to each do what drives us as creative people. For Lane, it is all about rendering what she hears in her head and puts to voice. For me, it is about making what she writes sound as good as possible, given our respective skill levels and the equipment available to us. I think we do quite a bit with very litle...

Playing with Lane isn't all I do. I have a little hobby band that practices at my house, and I can sit in with any number of people and jam. That does help keep me sane. I guess I'm just reaching a point in my life where I need to know that I'm not completely wasting my time. After all, being a performer of any kind is a bit of a masturbatory process without some external validation from an audience...
