comic cross david indie list mine pat prosthetic relapse seen total version
I had seen other comic friends of mine go to indie labels. Like David Cross and Pat Oswald went to Subpop, and Subpop didn't make total sense for me, but the metal version of that did. So I made a small list with Metal Blade, Prosthetic and couple of other labels, and Relapse was one of them.
heard rock school
I got into Kiss before I got into anybody. The first thing I heard was 'Detroit Rock City.' I heard it in the school library, where I lived.
coming favorite home love pounding room sitting
I love writing. It's one of my favorite jobs. Of the things I get to do, I love sitting in a room and coming up with ideas, and I love going home and pounding them out.
band central cover faux funny heavy pilot sort steel tribute
I'm doing a pilot for Comedy Central with the band Steel Panther. They're faux heavy metal. They started as kind of a tribute band out here, or a cover band, and they're funny guys, and they just sort of morphed into their own thing.
passively people
What I think makes people nerds is just being obsessive. I think that's what nerdiness really is - its people who don't just passively like something, they get passionate about whatever they like.
gone staff stuff younger
A lot of the traditional sitcom stuff I did - I think I could have gone that route when I was younger as a staff writer, and I just didn't want to.

I feel very lucky that I've been able to carve out any niche at all in this business. It's so hard to get into.
current felt music pop rather song worst
I just felt like I'd rather listen to even the worst metal song more than most current pop music.
life
I think too much during my day-to-day life; I'm the guy who worries about everything.
playing
I tried playing the drums, and I could play 'Boys Don't Cry' by The Cure.
hit visits
I try to hit all the places Guy Fieri visits in every city I go to. It's, like, something a 60-year-old would do.
good next staying
I've always been really good at staying busy. Even while I'm working, I'm looking at what the next thing is.
anger charlie sheen tv written
I've written for the last 15 years on TV shows, but now I'm doing the new Charlie Sheen program, 'Anger Management.'
empty nerd
Nerd rage to me is kind of just empty rage. I mean, ultimately, you're not going to do it; you're not going to fight somebody, you know.
