You have to search the absolute demons of your soul to make a great record.

Punk has always been about doing things your own way. What it represents for me is ultimate freedom and a sense of individuality.

We had a lot of fun together. We really were in sync with each other, a lot.Madisyn Shipman is a great kid.

I threw a big-ass party. It turned out a bit different from Perry's [in That's Ordinary World], but it was pretty nuts. It wasn't me that threw it though, my wife threw me a surprise party. So [unlike Selma Blair's character] she didn't forget.

As agent asked if I wanted to be represented, and I said, "Yeah, sure, I'll give it a shot!" It was never something I had really put that much thought into. But then, Lee Kirk reached out and asked if I was interested, and I read the script of the [Ordinary World] and said, "Absolutely!"

The fact that I was taking naps in churches, in between takes of the [Ordinary World], and there was that guerilla style of filmmaking, I felt more at home with that.

That was the hard part of having kids: trying to be on their schedule, then fighting to get to sleep while they are sleeping.
