“I suddenly thought about being backstage, and I think it shocks you to meet the people you shared your bedrooms with. And a lot of them either take themselves too seriously or don't know how to take themselves at all.

It's completely extraordinary how little regard the culture had for the landscape. The country is now full of these half-built industrial parks and hotels.”
