When I was a kid, if you didn't speak Irish, you really wanted to. And you played Gaelic games and you didn't pay any attention to what was happening in the outside world, because really, Ireland was the center of the universe.

I think about what I say. I don't give stock answers. I'm not trying to cultivate an image with the public, like several of the top players do. ↗

I'm getting good offers, as good as ever sometimes. I just finished a thing with Billy Bob Thornton that was the most unique part I've ever played in my life, in the most unique project. ↗

So at 16 I got a job at the local radio station. And I was working after school and weekends. I did the news; I did everything. I did - played records. ↗
