What they’re saying

“'You can't plan something like that. I was a drama major before the Grass Roots, so that was always my plan; I wanted to be a character actor. And remember, when 'The Office' started we thought we were going to be cancelled, because nobody liked the first season at all. But slowly it caught on and when people started pulling their kids away from me in the supermarket, I knew we were onto something.'”

— Creed Bratton

“'I'm not a Las Vegas act, I'm not going there. But I'll do a song and talk in between, about the Grass Roots or 'The Office' or about a book I just read. There's no payoff, it's all kind of rambling.'”
