in every moment you are not on stage, performing, within that sacred place that is your highest expression and where you resonate as a complete being, at-one with everything and everyone else around you? Or no, there is yet something else?

Performing and witnessing performance are superfluous to my musical purpose and I am thankful I am not obliged to have anything to do with them. Therefore not suffering, and quite content as I am.

It may seem like very different extremes, but how I feel playing on stage is very similar to how I feel when racing cars, there's just something about that rush and calm at the same time.

Nope.
I don't ever remember feeling at one with everyone around me, either.
