I don't see many people with longevity anymore. Everything was harder when I started, and you had to take acting lessons, do theater parts, work on connections and then get lucky. The technology is good, but it's also a hindrance for longevity.

I've been in this business so long, it just doesn't faze me. I know what's going to happen before it happens.

I'm a shepherd, not a sheep, and I've always prided myself on being a leader and not a follower.

These days, everyone is a writer, producer and movie star. You post something on the web, get enough hits, and suddenly you have TV show.

There probably is a lot of music that no one's ever gonna hear. For anyone doing music, just do exactly what it is that makes you want to do it. If you like listening to odd, strange, bizarre noise and that makes you want to create it, do it. Even if everyone around you tells you it's crap or thinks it won't work, someone out there is going to appreciate it.
