Man, that sounds like it'd be the blurst of times, ya know?

A few questions, but my biggest one:

I don't mean this to discount your time on Degrassi as an actor, and I certainly feel you gave a lot as the series went on, but when watching Dog Pound I felt you had really grown as an actor. I say this as a young director (and one who dabbles in acting). This leaves me wondering when, or if, you'll return to acting? Not Degrassi, or even TV, but film. I know of course that music is your priority at the moment, but I also know I'm not alone when I say you should definitely come back when the opportunity strikes.

Related to that - what is your own personal process as an actor? How do you approach and engage material, both during rehearsals and during shooting?

To go back to Degrassi, were there any storylines, whether they were about bullying, relationships, sex/sexuality, etc., that mirrored your own life experiences?

Finally, you're an excellent drummer. For me, how drums are captured during recording is one of the most important components of music production. In your case, do you have a preference in terms of how the sound is captured/how the drums are miked? I know I like fuller drums, like how Steve Albini rocks it, but I'm curious what your opinions are.

Eh, whatever - two things that don't need an answer due to their frivolousness, but still fun queries regardless: You lost a fair deal of weight between Season 1 and 2. What triggered that? Also, I've seen a transcript of the Degrassi.tv chat you did ages ago. That shit was hilarious.
