You know. Yeah, 385 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 11: but we were really would would I think solidified us 386 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 11: as a band more than nat and was our friendship 387 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 11: and in the fact that we all loved doing what 388 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 11: we did together, you know, and traveling together. There was 389 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,400 Speaker 11: a time where the band you always had to make 390 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 11: strategic decisions and when the band broke up. When Pat 391 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 11: decided to leave the band, he was really kind of 392 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 11: the last original Doobie and we didn't really feel like 393 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,360 Speaker 11: those of us that were left really warranted calling ourselves 394 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 11: the Doubies are going out, and we o it to 395 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,479 Speaker 11: the audiences to either really be the Dobies or are 396 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 11: having someone in there that that was originally with the band. 397 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,239 Speaker 11: And and although we were still playing Tommy's music, you know, 398 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 11: the audiences are still that was always a big part 399 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 11: of the band, even when tom wasn't there, his music 400 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 11: was a huge part of our show, you know. So 401 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 11: there was a time when we kind of woke up 402 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 11: for a while.
