00:00 for about six seconds, it's important for me to say this, because in life, in my entire
00:10 career, the thing you never think about is missing a show at Madison Square Garden.
00:21 Now, I started here, in this building, as the opening act for the Commodores for the
00:31 Jackson 5.
00:33 And of course, at that time, it was difficult, because how the hell do you come on knowing
00:48 that Michael Jackson and his brothers are going to come out and whip your ass?
00:59 Guaranteed, there was not a shot.
01:03 But tonight, I want you all to know, sincerely, I had two no's to come at the same time.
01:11 And when those two decide it's a no.
01:17 When God says no, and when the pilot says no.
01:24 The answer, I tried to bribe the pilot, and the pilot said, "I do want to see my wife
01:37 tomorrow."
01:39 So tonight, we are going to make up for that.
01:41 I apologize a thousand times.
01:44 That's all the movies we have tonight, Sunday morning, y'all.
01:47 Come on in.
01:48 Come on.
01:49 All right, y'all.
01:50 Come on.
01:51 All right, y'all.
01:52 All right, y'all.
01:53 All right, y'all.
01:55 All right, y'all.
01:56 All right, y'all.
01:57 All right, y'all.
01:58 All right, y'all.
01:59 All right, y'all.
02:00 All right, y'all.
02:01 All right, y'all.
02:02 All right, y'all.
