We've got to get this show up.

And then the turnaround, you know this, Dave.

The turnaround is ambitious, right?

Because the previous show finishes at 6 p.m., 7.30 our show starts.

And no one knows what other people are doing or anything.

And then so then we get in there, sound check, trying to get everything working, and the panic is in the eyes.

And I suddenly realize, oh, I don't really have the brain capacity after this day to host this thing.

And I have to introduce people.

I have to introduce them, try and say something a bit fun, also exciting about what they're going to do.

But I don't really know their names or what they're doing.

And my brain is not quite coping with the like –

I don't know if you've ever had that problem where you're like, I need more brain right now.

but that we get the show up with the shows on.

I'm honestly, I'm in the middle of the first song thinking probably shouldn't have spent so much time on the farm.

So I can tell, you know, when you feel like, I've got the audience, but just, I've just got them here.

I'm going to really have to work hard to pull this thing together.

No, there was a good energy in there.

Everyone was very calm.

But, you know, I was just like, okay.

And I could tell – I've toured my band enough that I can tell by the way they're looking at me like, oh, oh, you're really fried, bro.
