00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 2: I mean, I've been to gigs before where the crowd

16

55
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: The gig starts and.

56
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 2: We're down on the floor because I thought, I want

57
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 2: to get him involved with everyone.

58
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 3: And there's not many people on the floor because he

59
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 3: has this.

60
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 2: Huge shipping container that comes out that he performs on

61
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 2: and it starts and behind us, they've kept this area

62
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 2: clear where people can walk in and out off the floor.

63
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 2: Right now, I've gone to the back because I'm so tall,

64
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 2: I don't want to take anyone's view. And he's come

65
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 2: out and Lenny's so small he can't really see Tyler.

66
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 2: So I put him on my shoulders. Kate Security comes over.

67
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,839
Speaker 2: Take him down, mate, there's no one behind us. Put

68
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 2: him down on the floor. I said, mate, come on,

69
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 2: look how small he is. Just let him have a

70
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 2: couple of minutes up here seeing his hero. And this

71
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 2: guy goes, I'll boot you, and I said, I said, well,

72
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 2: why do I have to?

73
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 3: And he goes. If he falls down and hurts himself,

74
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 3: it's on us.

75
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 4: Probably his head was hitting the roof, you're so tall.

76
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 2: So then I nearly got booted by security Kate, because

77
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: I said, really have a look at him.

78
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 3: So I said, Lenny, just put on some tears. He

79
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 3: started crying and I said, well that you're know not

80
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 3: what you've done, mate, You've ruined it. So I've nearly

81
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 3: got murted.

82
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 2: But it was I just it was that first time

83
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 2: you've seen your child and they catch the bug and

84
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 2: you go, oh my, give it two or three years

00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 2: and he'll be he'll be it. If Splendor in the

86
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 2: Grass comes back, he'll be front row. Taylor's given us

136
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: on forward, and everyone kind of ran, and her and

137
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,160

138
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: she that wasn't good enough for her, so she wormed

139
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: her way to to the front. I couldn't find her,

140
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,200
