L: In 2007, I recorded a CD, titled Stick Man, that featured the instrument a lot. Pat Mastelotto, my King Crimson bandmate, played drums on it, but most of the rest was my overdubs. It turned out so well and was a harder-edged style than I’d been doing live with the Tony Levin Band that I wanted to go play the material live. Of course I needed another Stick player, at the least, to do that. Michael Bernier is an excellent player who lives close to me, so he was an obvious choice. We toured, then recorded another album and toured more, falling into a groove where we had reliable tours available in the U.S, Europe and South America. Not really big numbers, but enough to enable us to get out there and do our music, which is great fun.
