I want to be in the booth any day – Sunday, Monday, Wednesday – it doesn’t matter to me. I’m hooked. I love it.
I will make a ton of meat and fish and poultry on Sunday and then again on Wednesday. It’s not always easy to get protein if you don’t prepare in advance.
I kept going out on loan because I wasn’t getting much time at Reading. Then I went to Sheffield Wednesday and then Nottingham Forest and I managed to get to West Ham, where I always wanted to be – the Premier League.
I did the same thing as every Irish person who comes to New York. I arrived on a Wednesday, and by Saturday night, I was pulling pints at a pub in the Bronx.
Since I was a little boy, I’ve watched the Premier League and seen Liverpool playing in the Champions League on Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
Music is something I couldn’t live without. My dad was into music, he played for pleasure – guitar, piano. I started off doing jazz, singing with a lot of fabulous musicians here in London before I went to the States. And I still take piano lessons every Wednesday.
