But you got to explain how this came about.
00:06
Did they call you?
00:08
And we got to know, like, where are we, where are you going to do it?
00:12
Are you doing that?
00:13
I'm assuming you're doing this at one of the inaugural balls.
00:14
Yeah, we're doing it at a couple of the inaugural balls.
00:17
As a matter of fact, we're doing it at the turning point rally and we're doing it at
00:21
the Liberty rally, which are which are both part of the inauguration.
00:28
And what they did was they sent an email to Karen and asked her to my wife and asked
00:36
her if it was OK to for village people to do the inauguration.
00:44
And she came to me and we spoke and we decided, yes, basically, politically, we had the candidate
00:54
that we wanted to to win and basically lost.
00:57
But at that point, we were we felt that we should let politics stay out of our music
01:02
and that we should try to help unite the country by doing YMCA at the inauguration for Democrats
01:11
as well as Republicans.
01:12
Do you have I don't know if you've heard from the administration.
01:15
Obviously, we know the president elect is a huge fan.
01:20
Will he join you on stage at any of the events that you're performing?
01:23
Yeah, he's going to join us at the rally on Sunday and he's probably going to join us
01:30
at the other rally at the at the at the ball.
01:34
He's going to join us at the ball, too.
01:37
So yeah, he's supposed to be on stage with us a couple of times.
01:40
So, Victor, you have made the whole YMCA dance so famous.
01:46
Donald Trump has changed it.
01:48
Are you guys going to do his version on stage now?
01:53
We're going to do our version.
01:55
As a matter of fact, I'm going to have which I always have in the show.
01:59
The cowboy is going to show the audience how we do YMCA and the village people.
02:06
And that's the way that we're going to do it the way that we always do it.
02:10
And and he's going to have to do it like we do it.
02:15
I don't know that he will.
02:16
I don't know that he can pull that off.
02:17
I don't know if he can do it.
02:18
If he doesn't, he can do his own thing.
02:23
I mean, at a certain point, I'll just do the little womb, womb, womb with him, you know,
02:29
when he's standing there.
02:30
If he's on stage with me, you know, we'll have fun with it.
