Well we didn't have our original drummer on our last record. And most of that album was not played as a band in the studio. It was mostly the world of computers and overdubs. There was very few things played live or worked out as a band.

ER was one of my favourites. I played a car accident victim who has leukemia. I got to wear a neck brace and nose tubes for the two days I worked.

I just completed a tour in Europe. I played every night. This requires traveling some days for six hours in a van or a train or a car. After six weeks of that I checked into the hotel and just fell apart.

Having played many roles of scientific intellect I do have an empathy for that world. It's been hard on me because flying the Enterprise for seven years in Star Trek and sitting in Cerebro in X-men has led people to believe that I know what I'm talking about. But I'm still trying to work out how to operate the air conditioning unit on my car.

My parents were what I like to call proper musical fans. Lots of Sondheim was played in the car.

At her birthday my seven-year-old daughter will say that she wants these big cakes and certain expensive toys as presents and I can't say no to her. It would just break my heart. But when I was little for birthdays we just played outside and we were happy if we got any cake.

As far as those kinds of things I also played at the concert to call for the release of Nelson Mandela when he was a political prisoner in South Africa. We were celebrating his 70th birthday and calling for his release.

The best player I ever played with was Dennis Johnson.

If you play it straight it's funny - the best comedy is always played straight down the middle. The adjustment is understanding from the screenplay that a moment is hilarious.

The game of history is usually played by the best and the worst over the heads of the majority in the middle.

I want to be perceived as a guy who played his best in all facets not just scoring. A guy who loved challenges.

I played with the same band for years and years and there's a beauty to having one solid core that you keep exploring. On the other hand it's nice to throw yourself in different situations where you find out things about your own resources.

We were astonished by the beauty and refinement of the art displayed by the objects surpassing all we could have imagined - the impression was overwhelming.

I have played on many teams throughout my career and I know when a team has the tools and the right positive attitude towards winning.

Simplicity is the final achievement. After one has played a vast quantity of notes and more notes it is simplicity that emerges as the crowning reward of art.

Art can never exist without naked beauty displayed.

George wrote Taxman and I played guitar on it. He wrote it in anger at finding out what the taxman did. He had never known before then what could happen to your money.

They played Boston. They played at the Boston Tea Party and through an amazing chain of events I got to hang out with them backstage even though I was underage.

The best player I've ever played with was Paul Gascoigne. He had everything. He was amazing.

It was really amazing. I mean he'd never mentioned that he played in the symphony like serious violin playing not fiddle playing. And he just blew us away.

Hawaii was beautiful of course we played at Turtle Bay an amazing resort right on the ocean.

Anyone who has played the game professionally you're always taught that the ball is the most important most precious thing so when the ball hits the ground it's always a mad scramble. It's amazing how many times there is a fumble and the person who recovers it initially doesn't walk away with the ball.

I've created directed and choreographed for Lady Gaga since the beginning so 'Born This Way ' this was musically such an amazing evolution and such a brilliant record. So when she played it for me it took me a while to find out the visual interpretation that I could give back to her.

My stepdad provided me with an amazing childhood. I played outside like a normal kid I rode my bike I walked to school but the happiest times were when I was acting.
