Let's do it again real soon.
This isn't a franchise operation,
folks.
It speaks to a higher authority.
There is a moral responsibility
in the commodity interest of music,
and this place is uncorrupted.
I think it's uncorruptible,
and I never want to test that.
Just to let you know, I'm very
grateful
Steve Young invited me to play with
him tonight.
He included me in his opportunity.
Thank you, Steve.
When we go back,
I was 22 years old
when I wrote this piece about
Steve Young.
have I admired him?
I don't know what the details
are
and the shrouded in mystery
and if I started to explain it,
it would be like finding the line
between myth and history,
and I really don't know that anymore.
So I'm just going to sing the song
to show you how
much I thought of Steve Young.
