Ladies and gentlemen, because I asked earlier and I made a fool of myself,
and I said, no, no, no, please, it would mean a lot to me, so Mr.
Brown has decided he would play an additional song.
The great Jackson Brown, everybody.
They never asked, but they asked this time.
We're happy to play that song that the Eagles turn you down. I'm back.
