"Essentially and most simply put, plot is what the characters do to deal with the situation they are in. It is a logical sequence of events that grow from an initial incident that alters the status quo of the characters."

"When the audience is awful you can still have a great night and people will walk out thinking they had a great time even though there was loads of loudmouths and the sound was terrible."

Time

Quote_1.png
Leo Kottke
"You can't really tell what the audience wants but you can tell what will keep everybodies attention in the same place."

Attention

Quote_1.png
Leo Kottke
"The bulk of my set is instrumental and you have to give yourself and the audience some relief because a performance is not about great guitar playing it's really about entertainment."

Performance

Quote_1.png
Leo Kottke
"I have always thought of myself as a performer first and way down the line as a recording artist."

Thought

Quote_1.png
Leo Kottke
"It is not a mystical thing, however, it is obvious and practical and I think that what the performer does is to try to get to that point with every choice you make from the phrasing in a tune to the choice of tunes."

Choice

Quote_1.png
Leo Kottke
"I am evidence that you don't have to sell a lot of records or succeed in the usual way to have a big audience and a job."

Job

Quote_1.png
Leo Kottke
"I think if you are writing an instrumental you are dealing with more of an aesthetic in a sense but a lyric is more of a putting yourself on the line and a much more expensive exercise."

Exercise

Quote_1.png
Leo Kottke
"I'm not subject to their rise and fall because I'm not accepted by them, so I have my own little curve going on. A lot of it is because of how much I play, I think I connect like when all you had was Vaudeville, I think I have an audience by performing a lot!"

Play

Quote_1.png
Leo Kottke
"It was a kind of paralysis you would get from tendonitis and I would last about five to ten minutes into the set and it would set in and I really couldn't play."

Play

Quote_1.png
Leo Kottke
"I seem to find different material every four to six months and I frequently forget it which is a shame because it would be nice to have a bigger library."
