“Most of actor's work is done at home, in your hotel room, in the wee hours of the morning thinking and reading and feeling, walking around and listening to music. It really just because an internal exercise, whatever skills. It's great if you have to learn something new for a gig and designing a character physically is always fun but it does become an internal exercise in separating the wheat from the chaff.” IfsThinkingDoeDoneCharacterFeelingsHomeReadingActorsFunHoursRoomsMorningDesignListeningWalkingExerciseSkillsInternalsHotelSomething NewListening To MusicGigsWheatSeparatingHotel Rooms Author:Colin Farrell
“It came from my mother. She was a singer, and literally every day of the week she sang at a different club in a different genre of music: country, R&B clubs, jazz clubs, church on Sunday morning where she was the music director, pop hits, soft rock.

“I have physical problems with listening to reggae. It's weird, I don't know why. It doesn't fit the way my heart pounds, and I feel very bad when I hear it. I have a neighbor--she's a waitress who comes home every night at four in the morning and she plays reggae very loud. I hate that.

“When I was a teenager, working towards dropping out of high school to starting to tour with bands, I'd drive around in my VW Bug every morning before school, very stoned listening over and over to Zeppelin. This song got to me because it just seemed mystical. There is something about those Celtic tunings that almost sounds Eastern. Somehow it would sweep me up into my own little trance-like state, like Sting with those shamans in the Amazon. But all I had was a bong and a Led Zeppelin cassette.” LittlesStatesSchoolSongSoundMy OwnMorningListeningBandHigh SchoolStartingTeenagerEvery MorningMysticalEasternBugsDroppingAmazonTranceCelticZeppelinsTuningCassettesDropping OutBongs Author:Dave Grohl
