Eric Bogosian: As a performer there is a thing of trying to seduce people that are in my presence in whatever way I know best. Wanting to be very compelling in person and making that a major issue, that would be the idea of not being boring. You'd be afraid if you were boring that the place would go away. I think there's definitely a fear on my part of people going away.
Eric Bogosian: I think of myself in relation to performance the way Tom Waits is to music. I have my own particular crowd that likes my stuff. It's raw and it's funny.
