When I do my solo concerts, I'm used to being on the stage for two hours solid, singing 16 songs. And when I did 'Funny Thing,' I was on the stage the whole time. This is much more difficult. It's the difference between racing and sprinting. This is sprinting. And I have to learn to pace myself.

After high school I was going to be an architect. In fact, I was studying to be an architect when the audition for 'The Monkees' came along.

I'm now learning how to distinguish when I'm acting and when I'm not acting - offstage as well as onstage.

I had piano lessons at five and started guitar at ten, but although music and acting was always around me, my parents never pressured me into it.

No matter how tired I am, I can only sleep for four hours at a time.

The Monkees are to the Beatles what 'Star Trek' is to NASA. They are both totally valid in their contexts.
