That was probably during our wedding where I carried my wife down the steps of the resort wearing our grass skirts and I was bare-chested. After that I can’t tell you more. Also, during her birthday, I got two tubes of toothpaste which I used to write on the mirror to tell her about her birthday present.

I had a friend who ran a dance company and I told her that I would write a piece for her dance company if she gave me enough money to visit my girlfriend in New York. And I lived in New Zealand then so it was a very long way to New York. And I flew all the way there, got an advance for the piece, and completely forgot about writing the music for the dance company, and when I came back I had a terrible shock. My friend had to do the work herself. I was in New York for 5 days and considering it takes 2 days to get from New Zealand to New York, it wasn’t very smart.

When I was living in China, with my future wife used to be on the phone for about an hour and a half talking, we used to text each other. From our first date to the time we got married, it was a total of five days. That was the craziest thing that we did for love.
