The two teams are really different. Japan is a very professional team and Cuba is an amateur team. |
There were no three-hour blues jams. There wasn't time. |
They are all coming to the show and we'll have a little catch-up backstage. We're not in Sydney for very long this time: it's a lightning visit. |

Thing about the NFL, they run a good show. Occasionally, they make mistakes, like everybody, but they're quick to rectify them. I think that's pretty good. And I think Motown will be represented. |

We did this record with minimal technology, just suitcases of computers. I didn't want to go into a massive glass-and-stone $10 million studio with all the bells and whistles. All that technology can change the way you play. We pared it down, and the intimacy worked. |
We do realize that that there will be a lot of Western people in the audience ... but I think you have to remember the show will be on TV and it could potentially be seen by a lot more Chinese people. |
