That is a really good one, eva! Well, I never heard about "the spirit", but I know, that he once played in a small homemovie, made by his brother christopher, a superman-kind like character, with a Superman-S on his t-shirt and a green lantern ring. So, I say, it`s Fiction!

I believe you are right, Lady Trueheart! and how cool it would have been to be Nic's friend as a kid! When I was young, a group of us who lived on the same street used to hang out and we'd spend hours putting on plays, making the costumes and all that.,i think Nic would have been the star of the show every time!
Okay then. I mentioned in another thread that Nic and the singer Aaron Neville were in Zandalee together, but I wonder if you know that they have another connection. I read this ages ago in an article, can't find it now, but it sounded true, and it was a reputable source, I think. Aaron has a wonderfully distinctive singing voice and Nic admires him as an artist very much, and when Nic was in New Orleans he used to get together with Aaron for karaoke, at Aaron's own night club, they sang together, and Nic sang on his own too. One of the songs they did together was 'You've Lost That Loving Feeling'. This article was an old one, cached, so I don't know if it still happens.
hmmm...this is a tough one Lady T! *scratches head* I haven't read it anywhere but that does not mean to say it isn't true! it is a lovely thought as well..... but i am going to go for false!
During the filming of The Rock, Nic wrote several of his own lines while sitting in his trailer, and because he didn't have time to memorize them had to take cue cards on set?!
Well, he did say in some interview somewhere that he surfed when he was younger, but I don't know if he was an avid surfer or not, sooo, I think it is Lady R's turn!
