I remember years ago being on the set of 'Dreamcatcher' and not only did I have such great admiration for Morgan Freeman and was just thrilled to be around him, I was struck by the fact that he seemed to be having perhaps more fun than I was at his job.

One of the advantages of not having a record contract is that you can make your own mistakes, you don't need somebody else to organize them for you. ↗
