'The Taking' is the closest thing to a 'concept' record that I have ever been involved with. Pain, loss, triumph, and redemption. Life. Bring it.

I didn't graduate high school.

I went to Seattle U. Nice Jesuit school there.

My grandfather John came from Cork. I have six degrees of separation in Ireland.

When you start a band, you have to find people that are good, have the same sort of mindset as you musically.

Direction is closest to my heart. I may run out of work as an actor as I get older, but I can work as a director even if I live up to be 90. I promised myself that I will direct a film every three years.

I feel an intense intimacy with those who have this loathing interest in me. Further than this, I know what they mean, I sympathize with them, I understand them.
