Well, Well, 55 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: when I was a kid, like anybody else, I had 56 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: a hero, but I couldn't say his name, right. My 57 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: hero was just like everybody else's. It was either Mick 58 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 1: Richards or Keith Jaggers, whoever that guy is. So we're 59 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: doing this gig. Remember it started with just one gig, 60 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,679 Speaker 1: and then it added to another one, that another one, 61 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: and you know we already had done our show. And 62 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: it's about two in the afternoon, and up walks Charlie Watts. 63 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: I had never seen the Rolling Stones play before. I 64 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: never met the Rolling Stones or play with them. And 65 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: the first thing one of the Rolling Stones says to 66 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: me is, George, may I have your autogram? Now? I 67 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: want to ask every other rocket roller on the planet 68 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: the top that story and they can't one of the 69 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: Rolling Stones, but he could top that story. I don't 70 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: care who they are what they are. I had one 71 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: of the Rolling Stones asked me for my autograph, and 72 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: he had my record in his hands. 73 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 4: Oh right, so. 74 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, and he said, George, excuse me, I'm Charlie. Watch 75 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: may I have your autograph? And he game a pen 76 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,679 Speaker 1: and I said, I'm George. Yeah, yeah, I'm George. I'm George. 77 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: As I'm trying to write. He goes, it's g e Orange. 78 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, right right, right, right right. 79 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: That's fantastic, George. 80 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 3: You've written a lot of songs over the years about drinking, 81 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 3: but you're not a big drinker. 82 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: Well it's the opposite. Actually, I haven't written a lot 83 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: of songs about drinking. I had a couple, but I 84 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: am a couple. Yes, I've written, Yeah, I am a 85 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: big drinker, but I haven't written a lot of songs 86 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: about I've written. 87 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 2: That happened to be two of the biggest songs ever there. 88 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: I wrote a song called I Drink Alone, and I 89 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 1: wrote one called if you don't are drinking, I'm going 90 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: to leave. That's two. So people think I've written a lot, 91 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: but The thing is they've been played a lot. Yeah, 92 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: seemingly I haven't written a lot. Yeah, and one got beer. 93 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: I did. So when you say, well, he's written a 94 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: lot of songs about drinking, it just isn't true. I've 95 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: written too, That's it. You know, James Cagney, they said, 96 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: you know, all your songs are about gangster movies, and 97 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: then he said they're not. And then they looked at 98 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: all his movies and they found out about four of 99 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: his movies were about were gangster movies, and that's it. 100 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: And then they looked at all his other work and 101 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: they found out that was true. And then they said, 102 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 1: you know, there's other people like that, but those are 103 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: the ones that get played the most. Exactly. So when 104 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: people said, well, Further's got a drinking problem because all 105 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: the songs are about drinking, and I said, no, those 106 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: are the songs that people like the most, because that 107 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: means the people must have a drinking park because those 108 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: are the ones they love. Makes us feel less guilty. 109 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: I love. Yeah. Yeah, I have many other songs that 110 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: I've written and many other songs that I haven't. So 111 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: but you're not listening to those, Yeah, those of them 112 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: aren't the ones that appeal to you. Those are the 113 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: ones that are that are appeal to the people. So 114 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: I said, obviously, you're the ones that are attracted to 115 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: those things. Yeah, it's like being attracted to a woman 116 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 1: because most of the time when she has no clothes on, 117 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: right opposed to when she does have her clothes on. 118 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: But you're the one with the problem, not me exactly. 119 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 4: I told you you're coming to Perth Western the Strider 120 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 4: in the eighties, about the time you were swimming in 121 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 4: the Indian Ocean with sharks.
