How would you describe Nick to someone who's never met him before?

AJ: He's, like, a really cool kid, and though he's going to be 18 soon I'd say he's still very young at heart. He's so full of life & fun to be around.

What do you think girls like most about him ?

AJ: I think his popularity has got a lot to do with being the baby of the group, and generally his whole attitude. I think girls really dig his personality.

Kevin: His hair & smile, I think, and the fact that he's the youngest. They must like his voice too - he's got a really great voice.

How do you know when Nick's in a bad mood?

AJ: He gets really defensive. If you say, "Guys, why did you do this or that," he'll say, "Why are you saying that, I didn't do it," & I'll be like, "I'm talking to everybody, not just you. Why are you getting defensive - did you do it?!"

What's been Nick's most embarrassing moment?

Howie: Probably one time on stage when he went to do a kip up, which is a trick where you're lying on your back & you flip yourself up, and he didn't make it right the way up. He didn't hurt himself, it just didn't look very good!

Can you remember the first time you met Nick?

Kevin: I met AJ, Howie & Nick at the same time & I sang with them. Nick was 12 or 13 & I was 21, AJ was 15 & Howie was 19, so I thought they were very talented.

If you can't find Nick, where's the first place you'd look for him?

AJ: In his room - playing Nintendo, of course!

Kevin: He'd be in his room playing Ninetndo or at a basketball court somewhere shooting, or eating!

Would Nick be a good boyfriend?

AJ: Maybe not now, but eventually. He's still too young to take it seriously. Perhaps I should ask one of his ex-girlfriends! "What happened, why didn't it last?!" They probably say, "He loved his Nintendo more than he loved me!"

What does Nick worry about?

Brian: Probably losing his childhood. He misses things like playing sports in high school, things like that. I share stories about my past with him to kinda help him relive what it's like to have had a more normal life. It's hard 'cause he wants to stay as young as he can for as long as he can, but it's tough 'cause of what we do.

What famous person would you compare Nick to?

Brian: Probably someone like Val Kilmer, or maybe Kurt Cobain, if he was still alive & had had a long career. Boy, they're two really different people, aren't they? I think Nick'll blossom into a whole lot of different things.

Where would you take Nick for a brithday surprise?

Brian: I'd get him courtside seats for a Chicago Bulls basketball game - they're his favourite.

Kevin: I'd take him to a computer store & let him buy a couple of video games - he loves them. Or I'd take him to an NBA basketball game - hes' totally into that.

Is Nick a good person to confide in?

Brian: Yeah , we're really close - you know us, Frick & Frack! We're probably the closest out of the lot so we do a lot of talking. He confides in me & I confide in him - you know it'll never leave the room.
