:55:04
All right? That tended to understate
the hugeness of the object.

:55:08
- You're making too big a thing out of it.
- Making a big thing was the idea.

:55:13
Nigel gave me a drawing
that said 18 inches.

:55:15
I know...
:55:17
Whether he knows the difference between
feet and inches is not my problem.

:55:21
But you're not as confused as him. It's not
your job to be as confused as Nigel is.

:55:25
It's my job to do what I'm asked to do
by the creative element of this band.

:55:30
- The audience were laughing.
- So it became a comedy number.

:55:33
Yes, it fuckin' did, and it was not pleasant
to be part of the comedy onstage.

:55:37
Backstage, perhaps it was very amusing.
:55:39
Maybe we just fix the choreography,
keep the dwarf clear.

:55:43
- What do you mean?
- So he won't trod upon it.

:55:46
That's not the issue.
I think it's symptomatic of taking on more

:55:49
than you can, er... er... handle.
:55:53
It's not the first time
you've messed things up, is it?

:55:56
There have been some gaping holes
in the business end...

:56:01
Excuse me. This is a band meeting, right?
Are you here for some reason?

:56:05
- She's with me.
- Is she now in the band?

:56:09
I care what happens to the band.
:56:11
David, whenever a single ruffle comes
into this adolescent fantasy world

:56:15
you guys have built around yourself,
:56:18
you start screaming like a bunch
of poncey hairdressers!

:56:21
It's just a problem! It gets solved!
:56:24
It doesn't! If it got solved, that would be
all right, but it doesn't get solved.

:56:30
I mean, what got solved tonight?
:56:32
For one single thing that goes wrong,
a hundred things go right.

:56:37
Do you know what
I spend my time doing?

:56:39
I sleep two or three hours a night.
There's no sex and drugs for lan, David.

:56:43
You know what I do?
I find lost luggage.

:56:45
I locate mandolin strings
in the middle of Austin.

:56:48
I prise the rent out of the local Hebrews.
:56:50
Get someone else to find luggage,
:56:53
and you concentrate on the stage.
:56:55
- You'd like me to be road manager?
- No! All bad blood aside...
