Where does that originate?
2:08
Well, the whole thing was about fun.
2:12
Once upon a time, people joined a band to have fun.
2:16
The idea wasn't to make a living and to go for 60 years making money.
2:20
The idea was to go and have fun and then go to school or go to a job and at night play music for fun.
2:28
And of course, all the records are like that because we weren't kind of in it.
2:34
We were more like the Sex Pistols than the Beatles.

7 MINS LATER

9:24
Who's joining you?
20:13
Right.
20:14
You know, we got a blues guitar player once who came up and loved Herman Sermits.
20:19
And, you know, he was a blues guitar player.
20:22
And he owned an equipment company.
20:24
And he'd go on stage and we'd go, listen, people.
20:26
And he goes...
20:30
You know, because he'd do.
24:58
And I guess as far as what your influences like you talk about, like Tony Bennett, you talk about anyway, but like as far as things lately, like things you're reading or things you're watching, whether it be on TV or going to theater or wherever, or listening to what, what has been influencing you artistically lately?
21:45
What is one of your favorite views when you are standing on stage looking out on the crowd?
21:52
I like seeing people singing the words.
21:54
And I explained to Billy, who was in the band, that he's got to tell the lighting man that it's imperative that I can see the audience.
22:03
Because he can see the audience because they've not got a spotlight on him.
22:06
So I said, you need to stand in the spotlight to know if you can see the audience.
22:08
He said, I'm training people.
22:11
I've been around so long.
27:08
You and cream puffs, baby.
1:28
So, well, now aside from that, though, how does it feel, though? I mean, is it still exciting when you go out there? Like, what's it like still on the road?
1:35
It is.
1:36
You know, what happened is, it's very funny.
1:37
I did a sort of, I'm in Nashville, and my daughter came to a concert here.
1:43
There was a band playing Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.
1:47
And I was just going to be a guest and sing See Emily Play, which is not really part of Dark Side of the Moon.
1:53
So they played the whole of Dark Side of the Moon brilliantly, I may add.
6:23
Right.
