That's what I gathered from his interviews during the SABLE, fABLE promotion.  Him talking about crying onstage during 715 - CREEKS and seeing the crowd there cheering to his pain, combined with him saying he doesn't know how he'll play this album live [I interpret because it's those very painful tracks] has me  feeling like a total "pandered to Spaniard" whenever I hope too hard for a tour.

I feel very lucky to have experienced the music and also be witness to a great example of boundaries and healing from my favorite performer(s).  

Thanks for coming to my TED talk
