I've done every tour with them since then and will always be with them as long as they're together.

I was hoping for it to be possibly a movie career as I still would like to see that happen. I enjoyed making 200 Motels and did try out for a few things when I lived in LA, but nothing ever happened. I'm still hoping though.

Most people are really cool and I really don't mind talking to them and answering their questions.

My drum sticks are in the "Hall of Fame." I know that.

First of all; Frank was the BOSS. We didn't question any of his motives or decisions at the time.

Watch MTV and you can see what the music scene is like in England. The Spice Girls? Not a lot of creativity in the commercial area. There are still great musicians in England, but not a lot being heard that much.
