My Favorite Thing Is Drums. I Have A Very, Very Big Memory - And I Don't Have Many Big Memories - Of Going To See The Movie Tap, With Gregory Hines. During One Scene, He's In Jail, And There's Some Water Dripping Down, And He Starts Tap Dancing. I Just Like That Feeling Of: "i'm In Charge, I Can Do Whatever I Want."
