And I love Bruce and, and you know, Lennon was a great artist and, and, and,
public figure but Nelson Mandela was a saint so yeah you know definitely sets the bar pretty high you know it's tough quick story so I was in Johannesburg for the 1994 presidential election when Mandela was elected so one day he took me to a meeting he had with his former jailers
Mandela was building a house in Johannesburg, and he wanted it to be an exact replica of the house that he lived in on the grounds of Polesmoor Prison in the latter years of his imprisonment.
So he took his architect and he met with his former jailers.
And I'm watching these guys joke and backslap and have a great time.
And I'm like, could this be real?
That's how transcendent he was.
No, I think I'd be machine gunning people.
Yeah, exactly.
