I started playing percussion when I was 5, didn't start dancing until I was 12, so I saw it as another way to make noise. I always loved to make noise. This is the closest thing to being in a rock band without having to play an instrument. |
I was never an industrial machinist or anything like that. I did a lot of landscaping and working. It was an honest day's work. There was definitely an element of (getting ribbed by co-workers). |
They'll still make fun of me a little bit, as your friends do. When you hear tap dancing, you have this image in your mind of Fred Astaire. But the first time they saw the show ... it was easy for them to understand. |
