John Mellencamp

I fell into...

I didn't realize that he had changed the fucking key from him smoking to a lower key.

So I couldn't hit the note, cause it was I fell into, I fell, I couldn't find a fucking note because it was not the note the song was written in.

I'd sing right along with the song.

And I look over there and there's Chuck Berry going.

And I look over there and there's Springsteen going.

And all these people on the side of the stage, right?

And they're all giving me a look like, you're fucking up, man.

It was like, yeah, I know it.

And so anyway, as soon as the song was over, I ran off stage.

I was totally humiliated, right?

So I ran off stage and got to my trailer.

I just get back there and all of a sudden, knock on the door.

And I answer, and it's John.

And he says, can I come in?

And I go, I don't know why he'd want to, but yeah, come on in.

He goes, I told you we should have sound checked.

Anyway, so that conversation led on to, I know this guy who will get you to quit smoking.

And so he gives me all the information.

And me and two other guys fly this guy over from London.
