BC: Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, thank you. I’m sure some of you are wondering what the hell is going on up here. Exactly, that man over here, he’s wondering what’s going on up here. Exactly, I share your sentiment, my friend. How you feelin’ tonight, you alright? Heh heh. God bless, god bless everybody, thank you. There you go, get on the other way. James! Now that we’ve got your attention...and your loyalty, [unintelligible]. The loyalty’s about as far as the next song, you know what I mean? As long as the next song’s good, the loyal - the loyalty’s there. Anyway, I didn’t write this next song but I’m proud to play it. You might recognize it.
