"I think it was in January of '05, I tried one nail, just to see. I didn't put it in front of an audience until Sept '06, because I needed to figure out the presentation. There's no room for error of any kind. But it's such a definitive thing, I had to do it.

It's very different for me, because with all the other things I do, I play with the audience.

With this, I need an intense focus. It's very hard to come back from, so I guess it's good that I placed it at the end of the show. When I look at this picture, it's a strange abstraction, because my actual experience, is radically different.

The next development, I'll do a bed of nails, with NO nails!"
