Eventually, out of sheer will of never wanting to get a job or go to college, I found my way into doing music full-time.  (Good Uncle Quotes) I got a lot from my uncle who is a really good ska guitarist. Very ragged makeshift rhythms and intricate lines  (Good Uncle Quotes) Whenever I did a good performance, my Dad and my uncles, who were rabid movie fans, took me to the movies. There began my underlying love affair with film  (Good Uncle Quotes) My grandfather had been a newspaper reporter, as was my uncle. They were pretty good writers and so I thought maybe somewhere down the line I would do some writing  (Good Uncle Quotes)
