They had you playing just after noon today. Do you find it's hard to be switched on so early in the morning?

Ira Kaplan (guitar, vocals): Well, luckily we're so completely turned around: we've been on tour all month, working very hard, and then thrown into this. At this point, it could be any time of any day, maybe of any year. On the one hand we're very tired, but on the other hand it really wouldn't have felt any different if we were playing at 10:30 at night. I think we've lost all sense of time and space.

James McNew (bass, drums, vocals): Time is really just a construct at this point, I think. We're awake, we get a few hours of sleep, and it has this momentum to it. I thought playing today was greatly aided by this momentum, and the fact that nobody was distracted. (Laughs.) No one had the energy to be distracted, and I think the totality of ourselves and our group was completely focussed on what we played and what we did, just breathing it and living it as we were doing it, and it felt really great. That said, I would love to go to bed. (Laughs.)
