I've been playing music since I was 7 years old, some 30 years now, and acting for 20. I wanted to make a record and even if I only make one I want to make the best record I can. If they (the fans) like the movies and the TV shows I've been picking, I've got a pretty good feeling they're going to like the music that I'm choosing to make.
That?s the kind of player that he is. He?s just a junior, and I?m glad he?s going to be back next year. He?s had games like that before where he?s played very, very well. When you get him out in the open court like that, he?s tough to handle.
You know, I like playing music and playing guitar, and I like to draw, so I thought I would end up just probably barely making a living, or probably having to have some other job, but being involved in one of those things that I really like to do. But that didn't work out like that.
It's pretty much all I've listened to since then.
After I get comfortable, I kind of forget that we're even doing an interview and I say whatever comes to the mind.
I think we tried. Nothing ventured and nothing gained.
(But) I think I'm a better singer and guitar player than actor.
I'm not sure. I like to have funny answers for that or avoid the question but I'm tired of trying to be funny with that one.
The new branch office will be completed by the end of this month or early next month. This has been about a nine-month process.
Gap is a quality team. Right now, they're playing as well as anybody. We're going to need another strong effort.
I'm not done with acting forever. I'm very grateful for what my acting has brought me. But you only get one life, and you want to do what you enjoy most, and that's what I'm doing now.
I know people came out to see how bad we were. Then we win them over, and they stick around.
When I was starting out, I didn't know what the hell I was doing and my person who was helping me out, I didn't even have an agent, got me five or six big auditions for leads in movies in 1986 that I had no business auditioning for. I think I ran out of three of them before I'd even finished.
I'm sick of playing romantic leads.
