From the moment I saw 'Camelot' as a kid, the organic inclination of performing before a live audience is raw and visceral.

For the first two weeks after he passed, we were done as a band. We were just done. And because of the fans and Jimmy's parents and relatives and stuff like that, they just demanded that we continue on and spread the legacy that is, you know, the crazy James 'The Rev' Sullivan.
