20 I mean 27 years.
This is a true story
my bass player my drummer, you know after the show you travel 500 miles on a bus every night and
We're traveling and I hear my bass player telling a story and I see my drummer giving him a look and my drummer stands up
And he goes
That didn't happen to you
_ And because the bass player's going yeah, and then the girl said i'm calling the police he says that didn't happen to you
He said that happened to me.
That's my story _ _ _ _ _ _ _
The bass player looked hurt and he goes you sure that's your story
And I said you guys got to separate, you know
Get some new stuff.
Can I ask you something?
You've got a thing about clapping hands when you go into buildings.
What is that all about?
_ Well, you know I do it when I was when I would not every building but it's like when I was looking for a house
I was going in and they would they would always come in and say this is a lovely home to entertain
As though they don't know me i'm a redneck
Like I don't never entertain except when i'm out playing but when I go home, that's it, you know
And they said this lovely home to entertain I go.
Yeah
And they go they go.
What what are you doing?
I said well, I I want to hear if the room sounds good and I always go in when I look at a house or something
I was always singing
in the room because I go
_ What's the main thing you go the toilet's got to work and it's got to sound good when you sing there and then
_ You're okay, you know
_ The music for you, isn't it but you've got I mean you are a sex symbol you've had this label
How do you do does that?
Are you comfortable with that?
Very
