…band, Wildchild, were playing in Paris. And there was a line, I'm ashamed to say, I don't even remember what song. I think Jim improvised it. And there was something about, meet me at the graveyard, meet me at the edge of town. And these 3,000 people…

…three months ago, and I was counting the days for him to come back, and then he just extended his stay. I hated the waiting. Jim had already extended his stay twice. I had an awful feeling in my gut. It was like waiting for my father to return home…
