I love to play music.

I took a lot of time to open myself up to taking chances musically.

I happen to be a guy who also plays the piano and sings, so people automatically associate me with Billy Joel.

Being down in Orlando, Florida, where we filmed the movie, I learned how to bass fish. Jerry Reed, who plays the villain in the movie, taught me how to bass fish.

What I find is most people have a civics book understanding for how Congress works and how a bill moves.

Shaft was a pop culture figure along t he lines of, I guess, Dirty Harry - except that he wasn't as much of a racist. So yeah, I was always a fan.
