Rock n' roll was a kid when I was a kid.

I had no inclination to perform as a kid. I was a shy child - I always had my nose in a library book. I didn't start acting until I went to college. Once I started, it seemed to fit like a glove. I felt completely at home on stage. It was the perfect way for me to express myself, even better than writing.

Like any other boy in the world that does a little bit of rough-and-tumble and playing around when they're a kid, who doesn't want to be an action star at some point?

The whole thing about rock music, pop music, is it's really for kids.

I don't know how much more expressive you can get than being a rock and roll singer.

I've always wanted to act since I was little.

For me, my awkward phase corresponded to an interest in rock n' roll. From experience, I'm guessing an insecure childhood is probably quite a common thing among people who start a rock band.

When you're a child, you're able to assimilate so easily into any situation. You even start talking like the people you're around. I wasn't conscious that I was so good at that until I started to truly feel like an actor.

When I was a kid, I didn't know how I got into acting.

Rock and roll is - and should be - a kid's place.
