Peter: Hello again.
Davy: Hello. Let’s have, let’s have a nice round of applause for the Sundowners and Lynne Randell. Come on. Okay. That’s good, that’s good. Well, I’ll tell you something. Hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Usually, at this time, when, when we do our show, we get everybody in their audience with a flash camera, and after, when we count to three, everybody goes at the same time, so the people that haven’t got flash cameras can take a picture, you see? But we can’t do that, because the lousy people that own this place made you check all your things at the door. What can you do?
Peter: So, um, heh heh. We’d like to uh, dedicate the rest of this portion to the guys in the booth who can see us from right about there some place I think. Yeah, and to all of you too. And also, also to that fabulous crew of guys like Chadwick over here, and Neko and Ric, all these guys who are behind the scenes who help us with our lights, the guys we call the mini Monkees. Let’s have a round of applause for the mini Monkees. Yeah! [???] As soon as they fix the [???] sound in my mic, which is over there. [???] Hey! [???] Hello! [???] This is what’s called technical difficulties. [???] technical difficulties too. Bill’s in charge of technical difficulties. Heh heh heh.
Micky: Go, Billy, baby!
Peter: Say hello to Billy. Hi Billy! Billy’s gonna fix me a microphone. Get ready for all that. Huh. Behold one busted microphone.
?: Well, hello. It’s a bad cable.
Peter: That’s better.
Micky: Ah!
