But My Bologna was the first time when it was a big hit without any input from me. All of a sudden, people from all over the world were requesting My Bologna, and I thought, wow, this is unusual. Other people like my stuff.

Well, I didn't take it to parties or anything like that. Maybe I would play it in the school talent show. But it wasn't something I mean, I joke about that being the life of the party, but I didn't really force it on people. Sometimes if people came over and they wanted to hear me play, I would play for them. But it wasn't something that I forced on people too often.

I took my comfort in comedy and music. I mean, you know, I was inspired by Monty Python and SCTV and musically all the songs I was hearing on the Dr. Demento show and on rock radio. And those two things were always my passions. And I just always feel so blessed because somehow I was able to turn those two passions and make a living out of it.

So, you know, my dad used to say that the only real sign of success is being able to make a living doing the thing you love. So if, you know, if I didn't, you know, have a 40 year career, I still feel like a success because I've just been, you know, able to make a living doing specifically the things I love. So that's I always am so thankful for that.

How would it have been different if you'd been Al the architect? Extremely different. And that came close to happening. You know, there was a couple years there after college where I kind of didn't know how my life was going to go. And I guess in retrospect, it was a pretty scary time because, you know, my whole future was ahead of me.

But yeah, there's definitely an alternate route where I would have been just like Al the architect and probably have been somewhat miserable my whole life. I mean, the guy that is my stage manager on tour and has been for many years, he's an architect. And he still works every now and then. He'll go on the road with me for several months, then go back to his firm.
