Comedy is like music. You have to know the key and you have to find players with good chops.

If you don't like the people, you're just doing a sketch. Which, in most cases, is comedy minus some emotional backbone.

I like to play music, and I like to be funny, so I just do both at the same time.

You know when you're young, you have this unbelievable stupidity and arrogance and ignorance all mixed in?

Peter Sellers is my great comedy hero.

I get asked, 'Who would you really like to work with?' I'm already working with them. Smart, talented, funny people, good musicians, an extended family, good friends.
