NIck Cave on being a cartoon character

I heard musician Nick Cave interviewed the other day and he talked about his onstage persona. He said he considers himself "half cartoon character" when he performs.

It's probably a good way for comics to think too: Be half a cartoon character up there. Act the way a caricaturist would draw you...ridiculously exaggerated, yet still based on truth/recognizable as you.
