   "I don't really feel like going on the road because it feels like a lot of   
   energy wasted," John said.  "The truth is that only three shows in ten are   
   really enjoyable, and that's if you're lucky.  I think I'd rather do something   
   for television, but the    
   sound they get on television is still so awful.  Those little speakers are   
   such a drag.  If they could get better sound, that would really be interesting.   
      
   "But I enjoy being in the studio the most.  I always did.  It's more like   
   writing.  Writing is something personal.  Whether it's shyness or whatever, I   
   never meant to be on a stage.  I used to be alone a lot -- an only child   
   living with an aunt.  So I    
   was always either reading a book or writing or drawing.  Then I got a guitar   
   and I was always guitaring.  It was only music that sort of pulled me out and   
   got me in front of people on a stage -- which turned out to be great, too, for   
   a while.  But    
   writing and recording ate the best.
