Everything that came to me, in terms of the ritzier side of performing, was a plus.
Success came to me in my late 20s. I started touring when I was a teenager, so I had already seen the good, the bad, and the ugly side of the music business. Plus, setting up my own record company taught me a lot.
The hardest part of performing in the Premier League is the mental side of it, with everything being scrutinised.
But by the time I was 40, everything was winding down. It started after the war. On the plus side, there was more more products and technology. But for me the nightlife was winding down, the glamour, the fun.
On the plus side, there were no rioters in sight but on the minus side this was probably because everywhere I looked was on fire.
Performing for WWE did so much for me in terms of teaching me how to act and doing fighting scenes.
There is no cure for fictional character love, but the plus side is that it is an entirely benign disease with no bad side effects.
I came back to performing with a different attitude about performing and myself. I wasn't expecting perfection any more, just hoping for an occasional inspiration.
The chances are you've never seen the other side of me. You've seen the event side of me when I'm on stage. But there is another side of me. If you evoke that side, you won't like it. It's a nasty side. You don't want to see that side. You're not missing anything by not seeing it.
I still value the adventurous side, confronting the mountain on its terms, more than I value actual success in terms of getting to the top. That has very little meaning to me.
When I'm performing, this is what everything builds up to, and everything has allowed me to be here.
I take 18 to 19 tablets a day, plus an injection every other day. I get side-effects from some of the medication that aren't ideal. Plus, I hate having to inject myself. It's painful and it creates a few dramas.
In terms of what Hillary Clinton, who's running for president, thinks about Catholics and the value more broadly of having a faith background, I can tell you she views at it as a plus, just as she views her own Methodism as a plus.
In most companies people make a specific contribution to the company in their function. But it is not expressed in terms of profit, only in terms of performing their function better.
I was obsessed with everything and anything; I wanted to learn everything, to read everything, to do everything. I was constantly on sensory overload. I'd hoard dozens of books in my second-grade cubby, and literally try to read two at a time, side by side.
I was a drummer in a group called Three Plus. We were performing at a club in New York, and my mother signed me up for tap classes. I fell in love from the door... so you can blame it on my mother.
People get so heated about it and can't see the funny side, I think. And plus, everything's been said. It must be really difficult to come up with new jokes about Brexit.
