DO YOU LIKE VEGAS? I'm of two minds about Vegas. I think Vegas is strange, and I don't know where their water comes from. But as a town and a place for an entertainer, there's no comparison. There's no other place you can go to where you can just sit and do six weeks at a time and have your band and your staff be so happy. On the other hand, as an environmentalist, I'm a little shaken up by it.

AS AN ENVIRONMENTALIST, WERE YOU HAPPY TO HEAR PRESIDENT BUSH, IN HIS STATE OF THE UNION SPEECH, SAY WE OUGHT TO LOOK FOR ALTERNATIVES TO OIL? I guess [the oil companies] made enough money. If he means it, not a moment too soon.

ANY OTHER THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PRESIDENT? I'm not going to be political. It is so ugly out there right now. And I don't want to add to the ugliness. I have my views. Most people who know me know what they are. I will tell you that I've never lived through anything like this. And that's all I'll say.
