Oh, Ray, I want to, I have to do this because I figured that anybody that worked, that will
work this hard, deserves some kind of reward.
Meaning what, Ray?
I'm talking about my drummer.
You know, well, let me explain.
You see, he's been practicing this lick ever since 345 this morning.
And I know it because the manager came up about 415 or 420 or something and knocked on my door.
And you know, I wasn't too happy about that.
But I struggled to my feet and I, yeah, he said,
manager, manager, what the hell's the matter?
I said, Mr.
Charles?
I said, yeah.
Sir, about your drummer.
I said, he don't sleep here, sir.
He said, I know, but there's a problem.
And rather than to try to explain it,
could you just come to, just come to the outside of the door and just listen for a minute.
And I have to admit, friends, I was shocked.
When I walked out, I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
My drummer, and I don't know where he found him, but he had French horns with him.
