successful credit killers
If it's successful and it sounds awesome, and looks killer live, then I guess I can pat myself on the back and take all the credit too.
lasts wells
I find that doing the drums last, coming from a drum history, really works well for me.
horse peaceful vineyards
I lived up on Kanan and Mulholland. It's a bit of a drive, but once you get there, the horses, vineyards, it's just so peaceful.
attitude bonus kind
I'm happy doing what I'm doing, and if you have that kind of attitude then everything else from there on is a bonus.
best freedom whatever whenever
The best thing about being rich is the freedom; freedom to do whatever you want whenever you want. It doesn't suck.
humor
I don't think I would describe my sense of humor. Doesn't sound like the kind of thing I'd do.
deem people perfectly pursue willing work
I have nothing against interviews. I don't pursue them. When people I work for deem it appropriate, I'm perfectly willing to serve.
home remote town
My home town is very small and very remote and we don't have a movie house.
dramatic movements narrative photograph serve stories
I want to photograph what I see and put it in a dramatic context. I'm an actor and a writer, and I want to tell these stories and present these shapes, colors and movements as I see them, as I see them serve a narrative. As I see that narrative serve an audience. That's what I want to do.
life
I personally don't live a nihilistic life, I don't have any use for it.
