HOWIE'S INTERVIEW
SB- Did you know that this was exactly what you wanted to do,
not necessarily sing, but acting too. Did you always know that
show business was what you wanted
to do?
Howie- Yes
SB- Nothing else could make you happy?
H- Growing up I had an oncle that was a doctor and stuff like
that, when your young and stuff like that, my father was a police
officer so I wanted to be either a doctor
or a police man, but once i started then getting into it, when
my sister got me involved into it at the young age of 6 or 7,
I knew from there. I was just always dreaming
of preforming on a live stage in front of people or doing some
kind of acting.
SB- I know that religion is very important to all of you, apparently
you are the most religious of the five?
H- Well, I don't know if I'd be considered the most religious,
but I am a devout Catholic.
SB- What does that mean to you, devout Catholic? What is religion
to you Howie?
H- Religion to me is just another part of everyday life to me.
Me, on Sundays, if I can't make it to church life just doesn't
deem right to me. The day just doesn't seem
to go right. Sometimes its really kind of hard for me with us
touring around in Europe or the Orient where I don't speak the
language, it's hard to get to a church. It's
been tough on me this last year, being as devoutas I'd like to
be. It is some thing I've grown up with. I was baptized in my
church and someday I'd like to get married
in my church.
SB- What is God for you, when do you turn to god, when your happy,
when your sad?
H- For everything. I always pray at night before I go to sleep
to thank God for everything he's given me and we as a group before
we go on stage get together and
pray to focus and give thanks to God for what he has given us.
SB- What is an important value that your parents have given you
that you will take with you every where you go?
H- I think that an important value my parents have taught me is
to be honest, be true to myself and people out there. That there
is nothing here that we can't
accomplish. Keep on striving for my dreams and never famm short
of the stars.
