Yeah, it really did.

Well, I often when we have a good guest on, I have often said, you know, we ask for 45 minutes to an hour because you get a little nervous.

And when you don't know somebody, if it's not going so great, you don't want to have to try and make conversation where it's not there.

But sometimes when the conversation is flowing, you wish you wish you had more time.

And this was one of those conversations.

And I say that honestly.

And let me make one more point.

Why the Grateful Dead are the greatest American band, musical group that's ever been and may ever be is because they actively sought out the inclusion and the participation of the people who were in love with their music.

And that is almost as important as the music is being played.

They started a community that will probably live on forever.

Forever, at least as far as humans are concerned on this.

Yeah.

Isn't this the ninth year anniversary or the tenth year anniversary of the Grateful Dead with Trey or the Dead with Trey at Soldier Field?

Yeah, at Soldier Field.

It was so good that energetically, even through the TV, we were dancing in the room.

We were.

Yeah, we were dancing in the room.

Yeah, our drinks might have been spiked.

Only I did it.

It's just, it's, you know, you want to call it mistakes, warts, whatever it is, the good, the bad and the ugly, it all just rolls into this big, beautiful thing that's constantly growing and shrinking at the same time.
