I enjoy some physical stuff. But if I had a choice between playing a scene where it's raining, it's terribly cold, I'm wet and I'm being drowned and playing a scene with dinosaur eggs in a laboratory, I'd probably take the latter. It's warmer and generally more comfortable! ↗

To get nostalgic about other people's music, or even about your own, makes a terrible statement about the condition of your life and your prospects for the future. ↗
