I think if I wasn't in very high level, I never will be in the team. Cause I was high, in very high level.
Shows were very different then - even as the headliner we did a very short set by today's standards and sound systems were really primitive. But the girls made it all worthwhile!
Even though I'm very Westernized as an individual and very Canadian, I guess I've lost some of my Chinese culture.
I'm very lucky. I'm very fortunate that my books have never gone out of print - none of them.
It's a very enticing, very seductive place, but once you get to know what L.A.'s really like, you don't want to live there.
