In my political philosophy - which is definitely more socialist Democrat than centrist politician like Hillary Clinton - I think regulation for banks and those platforms that Bernie Sanders had are good for the whole of America.
Once you get into the [Donald] Trump stuff, you get people going, "I didn't come here to have my political views bashed."
I don't want to do 20 minutes on Donald Trump. I want to do 10 minutes and move on. I wouldn't even do that with a live show, because I don't want it to feel like "An Evening Of Political Comedy."
It's not an issue per say, but I would urge people to help create an atmosphere where they don't see this complete ideological divide.
We mostly get together and have fun. It's a great place to play music with a small group of nice people.
We knew Eric could be an excellent player and he is proving that this year, ... He really has added to the excellent play from the rest of the team this season.
At that point, we worked to contain the fire from the outside.
Originally they wanted me to be Buster but I really like the Tobias part.
As for Tenacious D, of course it could work as a full length movie; all it requires is a great writer and great director with an ability to think outside of conventional film comedy.
The second piece of news is something that I would imagine most people have heard about by now. Arrested Development got picked up for a third season.
Where my comedy really solidified was when Bush was elected. I couldn't understand how craven and crass he was, and how dumb other people were for electing him.
[If Donald Trump does get elected, I will be] probably Secretary Of Reeducation. Or I don't know. I'll probably end up working in the cafeteria.
There were a handful of shows that were just painful. Not many, but things where I just said going into it, "Why am I here? What am I doing?"
There's the disingenuous duplicitousness, but you can apply that to every politician, really.
