We headlined the Memphis Blues Festival, and he went on before us.
And I was like, I just don't think that's right.
I was like, I know we're selling a lot of records, but that's... It's crazy.
That's John Lee Hooker, man.
Never get out of these blues alive, you know.
But one time it was Dr. J. Oh, wow.
I was at some party in Vegas.
This is back in the mid-90s, some VH1 thing or something.
And I was standing outside.
I was at the Hard Rock.
And isn't the guy's name Steve Wynn who owns the thing, the Hard Rocker, Wynn?
Yeah, and this was 30 years ago.
And I was there, and he was like, oh, hey, Chris, you ever met Julius Irving?
And I was like, I loved Dr. J so much growing up.
He and George Gervin were my heroes.
