Conan O'Brien

in comedy and in music is make noise and keep the noise going.

And people are afraid of, I got to keep the energy up.

We got to keep it going.

And that's so much of it that for someone to come out and say, okay, everyone be absolutely silent.

I'm going to try something is very unusual.

No, but... Now you're banned.

And now you're out.

That, you know, there's a part of the movie where you're talking about, because you're very tactile.

You go out, you're touching a lot of the fans and you get scratches on your hands.

Yeah.

from your fans just because they're so excited to lay hands on you and you're willing to do that.

And I'm thinking it's not great that you're getting scratched up, but at the same time, you're letting them know it's real.

Like, this isn't an act.

I'm not...

a hologram image that's been projected.

I really, this is who I am.

This is what I care about.

You guys are part of my crew and we're in on this together.

Which is, I mean, I've always felt that's the way it has to be.

Even though I work in a completely different world, I think I look for any opportunity to let people out in the world know that like it or not, for good or ill, this is who I am.
