Quotes
I'm still star-struck. I'm thrilled to say that hasn't changed. I think
it has a lot to do with coming from nowhere and going somewhere. Where
I grew up all there was in live entertainment was a drive-in cinema.
I'm very aware of the leap from there to here. Ultimately, I think I'm
too curious and enthusiastic to take any of it for granted.
