Question:
You said that tap dancing and all that is the most humiliating stuff.

No, but there's just no way. You think you have a connection to your feet because you've been using them your whole life, but you don't. The nervous system doesn't reach that far and nothing would happen for two months. I'd be doing it and I'd be so concentrated. First of all, it's a real workout, physically it's a workout, it's like a boxer's workout, you know. It's like doing the rope. And to do the simplest step in repetition is impossible. And the nerves are not there, and the muscles are not there, and it literally was months before anything would happen that was making me feel relatively comfortable about it. And I didn't know it at the time. I was working in a private room because I was so shy about it, I didn't want anyone to even watch what I was doing. I had a great teacher and she just--I was going to say, "beat the shit out of me" but I can't say that on radio, can I? So but anyhow, they were hearing me out there ..., and this went on for months, months! And finally there's one day where I realized that Cynthia and I were able to have a conversation while we were doing time steps. And that was the first time I kind of went, "oh!" there's--some muscle memory has begun now and it's starting to get fun, where I could start to feel that I was in my body with it, that was happening, I just started to improvise, put some style into it and make it my own.
