- Summary: The Rocker/Rainn Wilson: HRN-2373 The Rocker Rainn Wilson
- Description:05:05:55 - Sound Bite: Rainn Wilson You know its you grow up as a teenager and your dream is to be a rock star, I mean theres not many like teenage guys especially dreaming of other ways of fame, like Im dreaming being an architect. No way, you wanna rock out! Its so visceral, you know what I mean? So I think you know were growing up, were hitting our forties, startin to grow old and uh just wishing that you had a chance to rock out. Its every mans dream. 05:06:49 - Sound Bite: Rainn Wilson Yeah I think theres a lot of comedy to be gained from people that are kind of have big blind spots, you know theyre not very self aware, and you the audience get to kind of get behind them and go on a journey with them because theyre just so damn oblivious all the time, so I think thats something that both Dwight and Fish have in common. 05:07:14 - Sound Bite: Rainn Wilson No not at all, I mean I definitely played some musical instruments, so I had some musical talent, but uh I had to work pretty hard with the drum coach several weeks before we started filming and uh not just work on regular drumming but on heavy metal drumming, you know this kind of stuff. Boom chi boom ha boom ha. Getting the crowd pumped up, all that stuff. 05:07:50 - Sound Bite: Rainn Wilson Absolutely. I mean we got to rock out in arenas, you know, for thousands of people watching and play the actual songs, and uh its really pretty thrilling when you hear that just the roar of that crowd you know uh and uh it uh I had a little rock and roll fantasy camp.
