And if I had to spend 20 years in the band just to play that show, I think it would have been worthwhile.

The longer you've been acting, normally, the better you are at it. As a musician, it doesn't work like that.

I joined a band to hit things.

People say, 'Why don't you do interviews? What do you think about this? What do you think about that?' My job in the band is to play drums, to get up on stage and hold the band together. That's what I do. At the end of the day that's all that's important. Everything else is irrelevant.

I will never be a career actor, I don't think. I don't feel that I have the skill set to jump into it that way, although I wouldn't mind giving it a try.

There's a thin line between interesting music and self-indulgence. We crossed it on the Passengers record.

The big issue with rock stars becoming actors is that sometimes it's not believable, and vice versa with actors becoming rock stars. Sometimes just doesn't fit.
