Glide Magazine had a nice chat with Jake Sproul, the Rose Hill Drive bass player. On how to keep things interesting on the road:
I'm constantly changing little equipment things. We’re all really into gear; we are gearheads. We love changing equipment up and tweaking little things and installing or rewiring little things. Also with the music, we don’t improvise like a jazz group or a hippie jam group. Our shows aren't necessarily built on jam but we do like to improvise in our songs. You leave it open for new stuff. And if there's a mistake that somebody makes, sometimes that will turn into something completely new. If we're all listening to each other we can go off on that. It doesn’t have to be like "oh you messed up! Now we continue with our song the way we’ve played it a million times."
