With number three I might be a bit darker and say that every great moment has had an equally deflating moment sometimes simultaneously or at least intertwined with the same event. Although the older I get, and the less caught up in things, the greater all musical experiences can be. My current greatest moment is playing for Clara who is a very polite patron.

As for number four, this is a question I think about a lot but have not answered. I lean towards the world changing music rather. Many artists who write “message” music (Neil Young, Jon Langford for example) have flat out said that music doesn’t have any power to change the world.

I think Bono and Bob Geldoff would tell you the same thing. They tried with music, found out how ineffecient it was and, because it means enough to them, continue to attempt to change the world through other means…though arguably equally unsuccessfully.
