  • 2. And my first film was Carnal Knowledge another amazing experience largely because of Mike Nichols who would tell me you can't do anything wrong because you're doing everything right.
  • 3. Everyone at home is so supportive. People recognise me say how proud they are of me. It's awesome to hear it's amazing to know I can touch so many people in a positive way.

3 Anger

4 Anniversary

  • 1. I was always very grateful to 'em and am grateful to 'em now. I went back a couple of years ago and did their 20th anniversary show. But the longer I stayed on Hee Haw the worse things got for me musically.

5 Architecture
