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.

My older brother Mike is an excellent trumpet player. By the time he was 12 he was playing around Kansas City in classical situations. He was already an amazing talent.

There is a film called 'A Separation.' If you see it playing go see it. It's beautiful. It's so well written and the acting is amazing. It's one of those films that you would love to be a part of.

I think Serena Williams is the best tennis player of this generation if not the best ever. It is amazing for her to be playing as well as she is at the age of 31.

I'm always going to get more of a charge playing Chicago than I will Duluth or some place like that. Just because of the history and the people there are way more knowledgeable than a lot of other cities. It's an amazing music scene with some great bands and great musicians.

The real amazing thing about all of this is I think I've maintained the mentality of a musician throughout it all which I'm proudest of. And I'm still playing on people's records and singing on people's records.

There are a lot of people using technology that are playing to a click with backing vocals already stuck in there on some computerized thing that runs along in time to the show so they have these amazing vocals that are only partly the guys on stage producing them at the time.

If you think you don't want to play another psychopath but the script is amazing and the director is fantastic and the story is incredible then you may end up playing your third psychopath in a row.

To me when a great band is playing together it's amazing for me.

I'm actually not an exhibitionist at all. When you get onstage and you get under the lights playing music I feel more hidden and more alone than anywhere else. You hide behind your music and let your emotions come out through the music.

There's nobody else on the face of this earth that's playing a sport at a highest level... with a transplant. That alone continues to inspire me because I realize throughout the whole world the struggles that people are going through. I need to inspire them the best way I can.

Nobody was playing the soprano saxophone and certainly nobody was trying to do anything with it. So I was all alone. I didn't know that at first.

You'd think I'd have been happiest in my life playing music in front of 50 000 people at Gillette Stadium. But let me tell you it's an odd feeling to feel alone in the spotlight.

Another thing I like to do is sit back and take in nature. To look at the birds listen to their singing go hiking camping and jogging and running walking along the beach playing games and sometimes being alone with the great outdoors. It's very special to me.

Throughout my whole life as a performer I've never played with a band. I've always played alone so I was never required to stay in rhythm or anything. So it was a real different experience for me to start playing with a band. There were so many basic things for me to learn.

I like video games but they are very violent. I want to create a video game in which you have to help all the characters who have died in the other games. 'Hey man what are you playing?' 'Super Busy Hospital. Could you leave me alone? I'm performing surgery! This guy got shot in the head like 27 times!'

I remember when I was 6 years old and my brother used to go seek out guys that were 13 to come over and play football against me while he was the 'permanent quarterback.' I didn't know exactly what the age difference was but I was already playing against older guys.

I've had to be a man since I was 12 or 13. I had a job. And I was playing the piano for people twice my age. Handling responsibility is what makes a man a man.

I basically started playing violin at the age of six. That lasted about three years because my previous teacher died and the second teacher didn't really know how to successfully get me going.

I can't wait to be that age and hanging out with a bunch of people hanging out all day playing golf and going to the beach all my own age. We'd be laughing and having a good time and getting loopy on our prescription drugs. Driving golf carts around. I can't wait.

Michelle Pfeiffer hasn't been finding a lot of work recently because she doesn't like what a woman her age is offered. That's a real double standard. You get Sean Connery who gets older and older still playing opposite young ladies but it doesn't work the other way around.

I knew at a young age whether I was playing baseball or hockey or lacrosse that my teammates were counting on me whether it be to strike the last batter out in a baseball game or score a big goal in a hockey game.
