When we played in the city,
who was the audience?

:38:25
Who were those people walking
up and down MacDougal Street?

:38:27
There was a lot of them.
:38:29
Some were people from the suburbs
coming in to look at the weird scene.

:38:33
Some were from the city
looking at the weird scene.

:38:35
Some were the weird scene.
:38:36
It was never clear that this was the audience
and this was the singer.

:38:40
Because maybe half the audience
if they had their druthers...

:38:43
they'd be up on the stage singing as well.
It was very interesting.

:39:13
I was ready for New York.
:39:22
I started playing immediately
and I realized right away...

:39:25
that I'd come to the right place,
because there were many places to play.

:39:35
I played with Freddy Neil.
He was a big star down there.

:39:38
I did that until about 8:00,
he would give me what he could.

:39:41
The place was usually packed
from 12:00 to 8:00...

:39:44
with tourists and lunch-hour secretaries.
:39:46
And then at 8:00
all the rest of the houses would open...

:39:51
where you'd pass the basket and play.
:39:53
Check it out.
:39:55
There'd be a carny on the street
bringing people down.

:39:58
"You know, you gotta come down here
and see this.
