So I, so before I did the show on Broadway, I reached out to him and said, um,

I'm not used to doing, you know, shows, whatever, six or seven days a week or whatever it might be.

Do you think I can do this?

And do you have any advice for me?

Cause he's the only person I could think of who had done like a one man show singing the whole show on Broadway.

Yeah.

And so I, uh, asked him, do you think I can do this?

And he said, yeah, you can do, you know, how's your voice?

Yeah.

My voice is fine.

They said, you know, uh,

He said, don't go to parties after.

Don't hang out with your friends at a bar after because you will end up talking louder in a bar than you are singing on stage.

And that's like doing a whole other show.

So he said, don't do that.

Meet them for lunch the next day.

Mm-hmm.

Then he said, if you've got two shows, don't take a nap in between the two shows because that's your first inclination is, phew, got through that.

Now I need to like rest up for the next one.
