I don't go to see many comedies anymore, because I guess it feels like another day at the office.
Zach WoodsI remember as a child listening to comedic musicals and thinking they were a real riot. I had pretty questionable taste in comedy.
Zach WoodsThe days that you record by yourself, you feel like a crazy person because you're saying the same line, 10 different ways, or they ask you for 10 different grunting sounds and you just feel like such a schmuck. It's crazy! When there's other people there, it tethers you to something, in a nice way.
Zach WoodsI'd like to be able to do complex math in my head. Any kind of adversity and I become very anxious, but if you're a robot, you have good equilibrium. I wish I was cooler under pressure, like a robot.
Zach WoodsIt's always fun to improvise. What's weird is that when you're recording, you're by yourself, for the most part.
Zach WoodsMy brother, who's a few years older then me, went to college in New York. He said all of these people from Saturday Night Live do improv together in Upright Citizens Brigade, and I thought, "Oh, that sounds really cool." So when I got braces and couldn't play music anymore, I said to my parents that I wanted to go to New York and take a class at that place. They were remarkably on board with it. I got on the train, went up, took a class and I loved it.
