Fortunately for me, I'm in this unique business of not singing, not dancing, not performing - just kind of being there.
A friend of mine has a house with a basketball court and a pool. The guys go over and play basketball; I lie by the pool and nap in the sun. That defines me. That's consistent with who I am.
