Pull up a couple of chairs, fellows,
and join us.

:47:23
Thank you.
:47:27
Where do you fellows play?
:47:29
Well, actually,
we're playing no place right now.

:47:31
Fact is, we're trying to form a band
to take a tour around the country...

:47:35
and we wanted to talk to you
about joining us.

:47:37
Joining you? You serious?
:47:39
Very.
:47:42
A colored singer with a white band?
:47:45
Yeah. Yeah.
:47:47
Yeah?
:47:50
You must want to keep playing no place.
:47:52
Well, you see, that's exactly the point.
:47:54
We wouldn't be just another band
with you singing.

:47:57
We'd be something special
because, well, you're special, Billie.
