Richard and Steve, you're going to be hearing a lot of these two guys tonight.
They are super talented.
We're [B] lucky we got them.
We missed [G] them for 17 [B] months when we were all off the road.
But it's been great to [G#m] get back on our own again.
We [G#] had 39 shows last year, we're [F#m] very grateful [N] this year.
So keep an eye on these two.
What about the drummer?
What about the third one?
Who are these two?
Three guys.
All of the kids.
We're going to tell you more about the kids later.
