Tom zu einem künftigem Livealbum:
I don’t know if we will get a record out this year. I think it will probably be next year. Then I think there will be another side project of putting out a live record. We did a live record in ’84 and I never thought it was the great live album that this band should put out. And we’ve recorded so
much stuff on the road. Really almost every show we’ve done on the road for years has been recorded.

The Heartbreakers have a club-house, with offices, and a stage where we can play. So for a long time we went there every day and played, with no agenda. Just jammed and played three or four hours a day. And it was all recorded. So one of the engineers has brought me several CDs of stuff they mixed down from that. And it’s really good, some of it. The band would start to play, and I would improvise, and we’d see what we got. There’s probably ten or twelve of those things that I would like to put out…
Sometimes there would be ten minute jams on things, and then we’d sit and play it all back. And it was fun. And what I want is for people to hear how ridiculously good the band is.
Most of it starts with me playing through a chord progression once on guitar, and
then they fall down on it, and you just can’t believe how good they are on it. It’s
staggering. I’d really like people to hear it. I think there’s a portion of the audience who would really enjoy that. So I think that’s the kind of thing I could release through the website somehow.
… I would kind of like to make the bootlegs authorized. To make a place where all these bootlegs can be attained. Maybe for a membership, you can have as many as you like [laughs].
