1.What made you decide to become involved with The Sexy Chef?

Well, after reading the script, it was clear that Tank was definitely a character that I wanted to portray, so it was just a matter of brown-nosing the Smith Bros. until they finally folded and gave me the part...

2. What was one memory from the shoot that stands out from the rest?

hmmm... there are so many, but I guess that the soiling of the inflatable farm animals ranks upthere pretty high, along with the night in the casino hotel.

3. How has your life changed now that you're a glamorous movie star?

I don't have to wait in lines with the "little people" anymore, table dances no longer cost me $20, and people on the street point and whisper for different reasons now, but... every person in my old hood is constantly asking me to buy them beer and smokes, and I have three pending paternity suits from women i swear I've never met before...

4. Define how one gets "Tank-tified".

Getting "tank-tified" is not reccomended for the faint of heart... first, you drink five cups of very strong coffee with at least a quarter cup of sugar in each, then you play ACDC's dirty deeds album at full blast in its entirety (sp?) while jumping up and down furiously, until you can feel your heart beating in your eardrums.

It's alot of fun, I suggest trying it right now!

5. In your opinion, who is the greatest guitarist of all time?

This is a tough one, but it's definitely NOT Leslie West from Mountain. I would say that it's a four way tie between Angus Young, K.K. Downing, Richie Sambora, and Alex Lifeson...
