But this quote gets it bang-on, especially the last half:
    "Sometimes we're terrible," says Brock. But the band has
    always been into improvisation before note-perfect nostalgia,
    and musicians such as Huw Lloyd Langton keep returning not
    because they know what they will play, but because they
    don't.

The world has been attacked.  The world must respond ... [but] we must
be guided by a commitment to do what works in the long run, not by what
makes us feel better in the short run.
        - Jean Chrétien, Prime Minister of Canada
