He auditioned for a representative in Tampa Florida and then decided to visit it's New York campus. While walking into the School in NYC, Joe bumped into an actor he had met in a play he did when he was twelve.

On the day of the audition, Joe arrived to see a line of at least 200 young James Dean hopefuls. He decided that what he knew from his quick study of Dean is that he too wouldn't want to be on that line. The line was a media circus.
