CURRENT SINGLE: “What A Song Can Do”
When Lady A performs live, they are in the zone and always give their fans everything they’ve got, But Dave Haywood admits that his mind does wander from time to time, “You know, you look out and you see a fan, and sometimes I’m like, wait, I recognize that person. Do I know that person? I think I know that person. Is that a fan that was at the last show? Do I know who that is?”
Trying to read signs fans hold up at shows can also cause Dave to lose focus, but if he’s being completely honest about where his mind goes if it wanders on stage, Dave says, “We play so late at night, halfway through the show I start getting hungry. And so I’m like, okay, I know we’re halfway through the show, We’re on ‘Hello World.’ I know we’re having Chick-fil-A afterward. I hope they make sure they bring the Chick-fil-A sauce because I need some nuggets.”
It’s about then that Dave remembers he’s in the middle of a show and needs to put his thoughts of Chick-fil-A sauce and nuggets on hold. But other than those random thoughts here and there, Dave says, “We stay pretty much in the moment.”
Lady A – mind wander during show :40
Dave Haywood – “A lot of the show you’re focusin’ on bein’ in the moment, goin’ through playing the songs, focusin’ on what you’re doin’. But, you know, you look out and you see a fan, and sometimes I’m like, wait, I recognize that person. Do I know that person? I think I know that person. Is that a fan that was at the last show? Do I know who that is? And yes, if you see a sign, you’ll try to read it. Sometimes, just to be completely honest, you know, we play so late at night, halfway through the show I start getting hungry. And so I’m like, okay, I know we’re halfway through the show, We’re on ‘Hello World.’ I know we’re having Chick-fil-A afterward. I hope they make sure they bring the Chick-fil-A sauce because I need some nuggets. And then I’m like, okay, never mind. It’s the bridge of ‘Hello World.’ Come back, come back. So, you kinda drift in and out. But other than that we stay pretty much in the moment.”
