Between gigs at Mill City Nights in Minneapolis last night and Turner Hall Ballroom in Milwaukee on April 1, Gary Numan and his band stopped by The Current's studio to play some tunes and to chat with Mary Lucia.

Lucia and Numan hit it off very well, and Numan talks very openly about his career, his motivation for moving to Los Angeles, his family, his personality traits and his friendship with Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails. Numan also explains the deeply personal significance of his tattoos.
