| I never "stand in" for anything. The day I start a new gig, the process has begun (with lighting speed) to make the gig, and the songs, my own. It's something I'm good at.
Let me be clear that I say this without any attempt to toot my horn or be immodest or vain. This is just the way I work, and part of my survival in the music business.
Watching, listening, adapting, owning, becoming.
So now, even though the NIN touring cycle is likely over for good (or a very very long time), I consider myself not only a band member, but also an ambassador of the music, the mission, etc.
If you have the courage and tenacity to get inside the mind and heart of the artist you're working with, boredom will (hopefully) never come into play.
Best,
Justin
