He tours a lot of festivals which I imagine is quite lucrative, especially considering all he has to do it show up and press play and pretend to twiddle some knobs for an hour.
I still don't know how he got Christopher Walken to star in a music video
"It's a very catchy tune. The big thing about that for me was to work with Spike Jonze. He's terrific. And young. He asked me to do that based on my work on a movie twenty years ago,
Pennies from Heaven. The best thing about that for me was I'm going to be 84 years old [kidding] and at this point [it's nifty] to be able to be in a music video and actually have kids think it's cool. I suppose musicals have always been my favorite thing— I'm talking about movie musicals. If somebody asks me if I want to go see a show, my choice is almost always musicals. I think if I was in the movies at an earlier time, I might have been in a lot of musical movies. But certainly MTV and music videos, some are brilliantly done, little movies."
