"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

We played everywhere.

"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

But it was pubs and clubs and then we started doing festivals and theatres.

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

When The Force came out in 93, I used to be playing more pubs than I did theatres.

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

So I played pubs.

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

So yeah, all my bookings started failing then in around when The Alligators came out in 93.

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

So The Force ones, in around the History Tour.

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

So yeah, so my bookings started falling off the soil because people weren't sure or... The unfortunate thing, the way...

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

the way it is, unfortunately, especially for celebrities, including Michael Jackson, they get slapped with the guilty stick before they get that day in court, including with the likes of Cliff Richard and stuff like that.

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

sprawl it across the papers.

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

But until then, it should be kind of kept at arm's length where they can't report it because the damage is done.

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

No, if you ever get an aura of somebody, I didn't get that aura of him, like that kind of, like saying what Liam was saying down in, when he was doing the magic for him down in Cork.

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

He just hadn't, I just didn't get that kind of, like, I think people globally

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

Like, a lot of people didn't get that kind of read from him.

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

You know what I mean?

Liveline
"Michael Jackson is an American myth"

I don't know, it just didn't come... I didn't get that read anyway, you know?
