"I think generally playing live is a crap idea. So much of stage work is the presentation of personality, and I've never been interested in that"

In this quote, Brian Eno reveals his opinion on playing live efficiencies. He thinks that it is usually a bad idea due to the fact that it involves providing a certain character on stage, which he has actually never ever been interested in. Eno is known for his experimental and avant-garde music, and it appears that he values the authenticity and creativity of his music more than the efficiency aspect. He sees live efficiencies as a shallow method of showcasing one's character, instead of focusing on the music itself. Eno's perspective challenges the conventional notion of live performances and highlights the importance of remaining real to one's creative vision.
