And the perfect factor about it’s that I do not lose the eagerness. I nonetheless, I am nervous earlier than the present; I’ll be nervous tonight — very nervous, like butterflies and every thing. However I believe that is good. It is a good nervousness. It is a good nervous. It is a completely different sort of nervous than different kind of nervous that you just get. That is good.

And I like that about Soulfly. It is also a really optimistic band as nicely… I additionally like the truth that we’re sort of like an old-school kind of band the place every thing is reside. We use minimal playback — perhaps intros; for 2 or three songs, we have now an intro, however every thing else is us. It is all natural, so it is all coming from us enjoying the devices, which fits again to The Beatles, in case you return in rock historical past. It goes again to Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath — actual reside, natural. Each evening’s a little bit bit completely different, and I like that, as a result of it makes… so it isn’t robotic. Each present will not be the identical. So tonight I am certain it is gonna be completely different from final evening.”
