:12:01
And then like...
:12:03
Major seven.
Fairy
:12:06
Devil
:12:08
Not devil.
:12:10
So, basically, I have
two goals with the kids.
:12:12
Get the kids to, realize
their potential musically...
:12:17
to get 'em as good as possible...
:12:19
and then to get 'em out on stage
in front of as many people as possible.
:12:22
So, you know, my only real interest
in any of these kids...
:12:26
is to really see what they can do once you
strip away the fear and the laziness.
:12:30
Watch Will. Five bucks says
he doesn't get any of his songs right.
:12:36
Will, is it because
you're talently deficient?
:12:39
- 'Cause I don't practice enough.
- You don't practice at all.
:12:42
To get the second goal,
we have our all-star program.
:12:44
Right now, we're doing
the music of Frank Zappa.
:12:54
Zappa a lot of times enters in modes and
blues and jazz and the classical ideas.
:12:59
So the whole goal, initially,
is to get as good as possible.
:13:03
Then, when you're really seasoned...
I mean, and seasoned...
:13:05
These 16-year-olds
are very, you know...
:13:09
sophisticated musicians.
:13:11
Everything leads towards then playing Zappa,
and I become their manager, in essence.
:13:15
And I try to get them
as good of gigs as possible.
:13:29
Okay. Here's what we're gonna do.
:13:32
We're gonna learn the music.
We're gonna learn the music real fast.
:13:34
And I say this every time,
and I'm like an alcoholic.
:13:36
I say this time things are gonna be
different, and things aren't different.
:13:38
We're scheduling rehearsals
right at the end.
:13:41
We're like, let's try the song
as crappy as possible. Get it up on stage.
:13:44
So that I don't have to
cut you from your songs...
:13:46
and your parents, like, "I paid all that money,
and my kid was only in two songs. Why?"
:13:49
I have to explain to 'em, your kid's lazy.
They smoke dope. They don't practice.
:13:52
You know what I mean?
So let's not get into that.
:13:55
And practice early and often.
:13:57
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
