"I still enjoy watching Jack perform after a gazillion years of watching him."
"I like butter with my popcorn."
"I've got the country station on my radio."
"Jack has two boys, and when they grow up they're gonna wanna be like the D. I've already got the name: Mini D."
"We're like a rogue satellite circling the comedy universe."
"A friend is someone who can help you with your career."
"I fantasized that I went to art school with the Beatles."
"I feel good with a crisp hundy in my pocket."
"I want to live until they find a cure for dying."
"We're actually more popular in the U.K.; they really get us, and in Australia. In the non-English speaking countries, they don't really get it."
"I'm doing this pilot called 'Demon.' Kevin Smith is directing it. It's a comedy drama. I play a guy who rises up from Hell."
"Well, here's my feeling about shtick. I think sometimes if you don't have it going on too much, you're probably feeling insecure and then you want to add on the shtick. I would say, oh, like Kiss. You try to stand out from the crowd, you're going for a bold statement, you're going for a high concept."
"I don't keep up with music."
"Probably every band - you get back to like, The Stones are kind of the tough guys, Beatles are kind of psychedelic, Led Zeppelin was kinda mystical, The Who are kind of mods. You know, you just go right through. Everyone's kind of adopted their so-called persona or flavor if you will."
"You know, I come from an acting background."
"I had a desperate need to be Van Gogh or something. Some tremendous artist. Jack's so successful, what's wrong with me, why isn't this working for me? I hated myself."
"I can't be serious, apparently."
"I don't really like to audition, and that works against me. It's bad to be an actor and not like to audition."
"I have an agent and everything. I audition occasionally."
"I'd say that acting is a side project for Jack."
"Well, rock used to be the only game in town in terms of radio and what the kids listen to. Now I think there was a big hip-hop takeover, and pop music, it became mechanical and computer-y."
"I like 'The Graduate.' That's one of my favorites."
"Rosemary's Baby' is one of my faves."
"But the classic Tenacious D songwriting is Jack or myself will have an idea - I might have a riff - and we'll improv. And once Jack's feeling it, we turn on the tape recorder and start jamming, improv on that riff, improv on those lyrics, and then go back and see if there's anything good in there."
"Seriously, though, I realise I set the bar really high with Tenacious D - one of the great, great bands of our time."
