Do you still see yourself working like this in 10 years? I don't think it'll be possible, honestly. What I do is so athletic that I'm glad I've been able to hold onto my peak this long. And like I said before, I dedicate myself all the time to that kind of physical stamina and fitness levels and not to let it go. It reminds me of something a good friend of mine, Doane Perry, said – the drummer for Jethro Tull, another very long-lived, if ever-changing, unit. He was saying that even when Tull goes off the road he can't stand to stop. He's afraid if he stops he won't be able to do it again. And I kind of get that. I'm afraid to let go of the fitness and the peak and the devotion to the instrument in one way or another. The next two years are mapped out pretty well, and that's enough. We usually only plan one year in advance. So that's the other funny thing about longevity, because we watched one year go by and two, three, four, each one one at a time, but we never planned, ever, more than a year in advance. Now we're planning the next two years, so that's more than enough future for anyone to dare to presume.

Stay fit, Doane.....I have a feeling you'll be Tull drumming again.
