portland somehow time
There's something really easy and just somehow un-crowded about the Portland airport. Every time I go there I'm like, 'Why is this so easy and sweet?'
kind
Just a lot of those bands [like The Blue Jean Committee] started off in blues, and then they all transformed into other kinds.
aging
like an aging Pete Townshend kind of guy.
funny-graduation guarantees way
Remember that there's no one way of doing things. ... If you just get a hammer and hit it really hard, whatever it is, I guarantee you it'll open.
someday south
Someday maybe I'll go back and see what the Deep South is like.
relax stuff not-happy
I can't relax. I'm not happy unless I'm working on stuff. 'SNL' is always a huge workload, as enjoyable as it is.
night thinking saturday
I tend to think that there is a sophistication to everything at 'Saturday Night Live,' including the sketches.
nice proud kind
Chalkboards being used inside the restaurant seem to be a good sign that the proprietors are proud of their food, and that's kind of nice, actually - it's a nice personal touch.
night people complaining
I spent a lot of time lifting my drums into a van, playing to ten people night after night. I can't complain about anything now.
nice night people
I love 'Saturday Night Live,' and I really feel like people who have left before me have always stayed with the show. They never really quite left, which is nice. Everyone kind of stays close.
night people guy
I enjoy getting to work on 'Saturday Night Live', where I get to do people like David Paterson. And then, its like a different muscle to do someone like a bicycle guy on' Portlandia'.
night feelings stuff
I came away from 'Saturday Night Live' feeling very well represented. I felt, and I still feel like, they let me do so much stuff that I wanted to do. Stuff that I almost didn't even know what it was.
missing soldier sound
I don't miss anything ever. Because to me, missing something is like going backward a little bit. I don't miss being in a punk band. For me, 'SNL' is like... this is gonna sound overly dramatic, but... the way I am, it feels like I'm a soldier, so it was like, 'What do you want me to do? Put me anywhere. Do you want me to do these sketches? Great.'
husband thinking terrible
I think I was a terrible husband, I think I'm a terrible boyfriend.
