I feel for Mark Kozelek. Honestly, that’s what I wanted to say last night in Louisville too – I’m just not established enough to do it. Luckily, he’s an old dude who can be like, 'Fuck you!'

I used to be super antagonistic with crowds when they weren’t giving it. I’d be in the middle of a song and be like, 'Stop. Stop the song… Really? This is your vibe tonight? This is good? OK, we’re done.' I walked off stage a couple of times in Switzerland and a couple of other places where people just didn’t give a shit. I don’t know if it’s because people are self-conscious or if it’s because they don’t have respect for what creative people are trying to do. Sometimes crowds just don’t care. I made a resolution with myself to be less antagonistic, and to try to be more open and sweet on stage, and to not be defensive. Because the 30 people in Louisville last night had a beautiful experience. And there were 170 other people who were dicks. I could have turned on them and went Kanye and ruined the show, but instead I was looking at the people right in front of me, like, 'OK.'
