21:01:59 RE-ISSUE OF THE TRAVELING WILLBURY'S COLLECTION WHICH
21:02:07 DEBUTED NUMBER NINE ON THE TOP 100 LIST.
21:02:12 WHAT'S THIS NICE LIKE FOR YOU, YOKO?
21:02:15 >> VERY EMOTIONAL ACTUALLY, AND I WAS THINKING AFTER A YEAR OR
21:02:21 SO THE SHOW MIGHT GO DOWN A LITTLE BUT NO.
21:02:23 IT'S MUCH, MUCH MORE EXCITING NOW.
21:02:26 I'M SO SURPRISED THAT THEY MADE IT INTO SUCH AN INCREDIBLY
21:02:31 EXCITING SHOW NOW. >> Larry: WAS THIS YOUR BABY,
21:02:34 OLIVIA? >> ACTUALLY IT WAS GEORGE'S
21:02:38 VISION. GEORGE AND GUY LALIBERTE HAD A
21:02:40 FRIENDSHIP AND THEY HAD A CREATIVE SPARK OF A MOMENT, AND,
21:02:42 YOU KNOW, GEORGE WAS AROUND JUST LONG ENOUGH TO TRANSMIT THAT TO
21:02:46 ALL OF US, AND THROUGH EVERYONE'S EFFORT IT CAME
21:02:50 THROUGH, I THINK IT'S BEEN SEVEN YEARS, SEVEN YEARS.
21:02:53 >> Larry: WHAT DO YOU THINK GEORGE WOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF IT?
21:02:55 >> HE WOULD HAVE LOVED IT. I JUST KNOW HE WOULD HAVE.
21:02:57 I KNOW THAT HE LOVED CIRQUE. CIRQUE IS A VERY ROMANTIC THING
21:03:05 AND HE WAS A VERY ROMANTIC PERSON.
21:03:07 I KNOW HE WOULD HAVE ENRIDE IT. >> Larry: WHAT WOULD JOHN HAVE
21:03:10 THOUGHT, YOKO? >> I THINK IN THE BEGINNING I
21:03:13 WAS A LITTLE BIT WORRIED ABOUT WHAT JOHN WOULD HAVE THOUGHT AND
21:03:16 NOW I REALLY KNOW THAT JOHN WOULD BE VERY HAPPY WITH THIS,
21:03:20 YEAH. >> Larry: DO YOU FEEL THEIR
21:03:21 PRESENCE? YOU NEVER REMARRIED, RIGHT?
21:03:23 >> WELL, WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THAT.
21:03:24 YEAH, WE FEEL SO STRONGLY ABOUT OUR HUSBANDS THAT SOMETIMES IT'S
21:03:29 HARD FOR US, ISN'T IT? >> IT IS HARD, YOU KNOW.
21:03:32 THEIR PRESENCE IS VERY POWERFUL AND VERY STRONG, BUT THE
21:03:36 INCREDIBLE THING ABOUT THEM IS THAT THEY -- EVERYTHING THEY
21:03:39 LEFT THE WORLD AND LEFT US IS UPLIFTING AND JOYFUL.
21:03:42 >> THAT'S TRUE. >> THERE WASN'T ANYTHING THAT
21:03:44 THEY LEFT THAT WAS NEGATIVE OR, YOU KNOW, IDEAS THAT MADE YOU
21:03:51 THINK AND LOVE AND GREAT MELODIES SO THAT'S PRETTY
21:03:56 UNIQUE. >> Larry: PAUL AND RINGO WILL BE
21:03:57 COMING ABOARD. WE'VE GOT QUITE A SHOW FOR YOU
21:03:59 TONIGHT. WE'LL MEET GUY, THE FOUNDER OF
21:04:01 CIRQUE DU SOLEIL. EARLIER TODAY PAUL McCARTNEY,
21:04:04 RINGO STARR, YOKO AND OLIVIA HAD A CEREMONY HONORING JOHN AND
21:04:08 GEORGE, AND WE WANTED TO SHARE SOME OF THE SIGHTS AND SOUNDS OF
21:04:11 THAT EVENT. HAPPENED ABOUT AN HOUR AND A
21:04:13 HALF AGO. WATCH.
21:04:16 >> GEORGE WAS A GREAT MUSICIAN. HE WAS A DEAR FRIEND.
21:04:19 I LOVE HIM AND I MISS HIM, AND GOD BLESS HIM, AND I'M SURE
21:04:24 WHEREVER HE IS HE'S SMILING RIGHT NOW.
21:04:27 >> IT IS GREAT TO BE UNVEILING THIS BECAUSE THE GUYS AREN'T
21:04:31 HERE AND THE SHOW HAS BEEN SUCH A GREAT SUCCESS, AND IT ENXAPS
21:04:36 LATES MUSICAL STUFF WE DID TOGETHER.
21:04:39 THEY WERE GREAT TIMES. THEY WERE MAGNIFICENT MEN, AND
21:04:43 IT'S AN HONOR TO UNVEIL THIS PLAQUE TO THEM.
21:04:48 >> A ONE, TWO, A-ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR.
21:04:58 >> WE ARE VERY HAPPY THAT THIS SHOW IS SUCH A SUCCESS AND ALSO
21:05:02 ANOTHER MAGNIFICENT MAN HERE INTRODUCED HIM AND I'M VERY
21:05:06 THANKFUL TO HIM. >> I DON'T THINK GEORGE WOULD BE
21:05:09 SURPRISED AT THE SUCCESS OF THIS COLLABORATION.
21:05:12 ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE >> HE KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE
21:05:16 GOOD IN SO MANY WAYS, AND I'M JUST THANKFUL TO BE A PART OF
21:05:18 IT. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY.

21:05:34 DO YOU FEEL, YOKO, THAT THE BEATLES HAVE KIND OF SURROUNDED
21:05:38 YOU, THAT YOU'RE FOREVER IDENTIFIED AS A BEATLE?
21:05:41 >> WELL, IT'S A FAMILY. IT'S A BEATLE FAMILY IS A VERY,
21:05:45 VERY STRONG FAMILY, AND WE ARE A PART OF IT, I FEEL, YEAH.
21:05:48 >> Larry: EVEN THOUGH THERE WERE BREAKUPS AND UPS AND DOWNS?
21:05:50 >> WELL, MOST FAMILIES DO HAVE SOME BREAKUPS AND ARGUMENTS,
21:05:54 DON'T YOU THINK. >> Larry: YEAH.
21:05:56 OLIVIA, HOW DO YOU HANDLE THIS? THEY SEE YOU, THEY THINK BEATLE.
21:06:00 >> WELL, I MEAN, IT'S A REAL PRIVILEGE, ISN'T IT, YOU KNOW?
21:06:04 TO BE INVOLVED WITH SUCH A GREAT LEGACY.
21:06:06 IT'S A REAL PRIVILEGE. >> Larry: SO YOU DON'T LOOK AT
21:06:11 IT IN ANY WAY AS A DOWN TO IT? >> THERE ISN'T ANY DOWN SIDE TO
21:06:15 IT. THEY HAVE BEEN A GREAT SUPPORT,
21:06:17 GREAT FRIENDS. OUR KIDS ARE ALL FRIENDS.
21:06:18 IT REALLY IS AN EXTENDED FAMILY. >> Larry: PAUL McCARTNEY AND

21:11:18 2000 GEORGE AND I SHARE I GUESS A LOT OF THINGS, ONE IN COMMON.
21:11:22 WE ARE PASSIONATE OF RACING, SO FOR MANY YEARS WE MET EACH OTHER
21:11:27 AT RACING TRACKS, BUT ONE YEAR HE CAME IN MONTREAL AND WE
21:11:31 ORGANIZED A PARTY THERE. I DON'T PLAY GOLF SO I INVITE
21:11:34 ALL MY BUSINESS PEOPLE, FRIENDS ON A SPECIAL NIGHT, ON A SUNDAY
21:11:39 NIGHT, AND IT GOES ON ALL NIGHT, AND GEORGE WAS INVITED BY OUR
21:11:44 COMMON FRIEND THAT WE HAVE AND HE ARRIVED AT THE PLACE THERE
21:11:46 AND IT WAS MY MAGICAL GARDEN, AND HE WAS SUPPOSED TO COME ONLY
21:11:49 FOR 30 MINUTES, SAY HELLO, PAY A POLITE VISIT TO US.
21:11:54 IN THE END HE STAYED WITH US ALL NIGHT, JAMMED WITH THE MUSICIANS
21:11:57 THERE. >> Larry: AND DID HE COME UP
21:11:58 WITH THIS IDEA IN. >> WELL, ACTUALLY WHEN HE LEFT,
21:12:01 HE SAID I WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO YOU AGAIN, I SAID, LISTEN, I
21:12:06 JUST WANT TO BE VERY CAREFUL ABOUT NOT ENGAGING TOO MUCH
21:12:10 CONVERSATION, AND THEN WE HAD A CONVERSATION OVER THE PHONE AND
21:12:12 HE SAID, LISTEN, I REALLY ENJOY AND THE FEELING I HAD AT YOUR
21:12:17 PLACE MADE ME -- REMINDS ME OF MY OWN MAGICAL GARDEN WHICH WAS
21:12:21 YOUR HOUSE. >> Larry: DID THE PROCESS BEGIN
21:12:23 THERE, AND WAS IT UNDER WAY WHEN GEORGE PASSED AWAY?
21:12:26 >> YEAH TOTALLY, TOTALLY. YOU KNOW, THERE WERE TWO
21:12:30 MOMENTS. FIRST, WHEN HE CAME TO VISIT MY
21:12:32 HOUSE AND THEN HE INVITE ME TO VISIT HIS HOUSE AND HE SHOWED
21:12:35 ME, REMEMBER THE DAY? I SPENT AN ENTIRE DAY VISITING.
21:12:39 HE SHOWED ME ALL HIS PROPERTY AND THERE WHAT HAPPENED BECAUSE
21:12:42 BASICALLY IS WE DREAMED TOGETHER.
21:12:45 IT WAS NOT ABOUT HAVING A PRECISE VISION OF THE SHOW.
21:12:47 IT WAS ABOUT DEFINING AN EMOTION THAT WE WERE LOOKING TO MAYBE
21:12:53 ACHIEVE IN THE ENCOUNTER OF CIRQUE DU SOLEIL AND THE
21:12:55 BEATLES, AND THIS WHAT HAS BEEN THE DRIVING FORCE SINCE THE
21:12:58 BEGINNING. >> Larry: YOKO, YOU HAD TO SIGN
21:13:00 OFF ON THIS, DIDN'T YOU IN. >> YES, OF COURSE.
21:13:02 I WAS NERVOUS FIRST AND THEN I THOUGHT IT'S A GOOD IDEA ANYWAY.
21:13:06 >> Larry: DID YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
21:13:07 >> WELL, YOU KNOW -- >> Larry: HE SAYS YES.
21:13:09 >> WELL, YES. OKAY.
21:13:12 I WAS A LITTLE BIT -- >> YOKO WAS BRINGING US, YOU
21:13:16 KNOW, IT WAS SO IMPORTANT FOR US TO HAVE THE COLLABORATION AND
21:13:20 THE INPUT OF EVERYBODY. >> SURE.
21:13:22 >> FOR US IT WAS THE DREAM OF GEORGE WAS TO AT LEAST ONCE

21:13:46 >> Larry: WHAT WAS IT LIKE, OWE LIFE YEAH, THE FIRST TIME YOU
21:13:48 SAW IT DONE? >> OH, WELL, I THINK THE FIRST
21:13:51 TIME WE WENT TO REHEARSALS IN MONTREAL WE WERE STUNNED.
21:13:57 THAT WOULD HAVE DONE IT FOR US AT THAT TIME BUT BEING PART OF
21:13:59 THE BRAINSTORMING AND VISITING AND SEEING THE COSTUMES AND THEN
21:14:02 WE WERE IN THE STUDIO TOGETHER WITH GEORGE AND GILES MARTIN.
21:14:07 THE WHOLE CREATIVE PROCESS WAS JUST SO UPLIFTING, AND
21:14:11 ENERGETIC, AND SUCH A GREAT EXCHANGE.
21:14:15 >> Larry: WERE THEY EASY TO WORK WITH, GUY?
21:14:17 . THE TRUTH.

21:19:44 WE FIRST HEARD ABOUT THE COLLABORATION.
21:19:46 >> Larry: WHEN YOU FIRST HEARD. >> WHEN WE FIRST HEARD ABOUT IT,
21:19:50 I THINK WE LOVED CIRQUE DU SOLEIL ANYWAY.
21:19:51 WE HAD SEEN A FEW OF THEIR SHOWS.
21:19:54 ACTUALLY GEORGE BROUGHT ME HERE YEARS AGO TO SEE "OH" HE WAS SO
21:20:00 IN LOVE WITH WHAT THEY DID AND SO I FELL IN LOVE WITH WHAT THEY
21:20:04 DID, AND SO THE IDEA CAME THAT WE MIGHT DO A SHOW TOGETHER, AND
21:20:07 THE THING WAS YEAH, OKAY. THE TWO THINGS SOUND GOOD
21:20:10 TOGETHER BUT WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?
21:20:12 WHAT'S IT GOING TO BE? I KEPT SAYING IT'S LIKE WE'RE
21:20:15 GOING TO BE IN A FILM WITH SPIELBERG.
21:20:18 BECAUSELES AND SPIELBERG, THAT'S GREAT, BUT WHAT'S THE SCRIPT,
21:20:21 AND, YOU KNOW, THE FRENCH GUYS ARE SORT OF SAYING -- FRENCH
21:20:25 CANADIAN GUY SAYING -- >> BLACK AND WHITE.
21:20:28 >> IT'S GOING TO BE GOOD. BUT PRETTY SOON THEY CAME UP
21:20:33 WITH SOME SENSATIONAL IDEAS. >> Larry: DID YOU LIKE IT RIGHT
21:20:35 AWAY, RINGO? >> I DID, I DID.
21:20:37 YOU KNOW, I MEAN, IT HAD ITS PROCESS TO GO THROUGH.
21:20:41 I LOVE THE WAY THE MUSIC WAS GOING AND WE HAD ALL THAT AND
21:20:45 THE FIVE-POINT WAND AND THEN WE SAW THE SHOW AND IT WAS SO
21:20:50 EXCITING, YOU KNOW. IT WAS REALLY EXCITING, AND I
21:20:53 HAVEN'T SEEN IT SINCE, BUT THE LADIES WENT LAST NIGHT.
21:20:56 I MEAN, WE'RE GOING TONIGHT, BUT THE LADIES WENT AND SAID IT'S
21:21:00 CHANGED SO IT WILL BE REALLY EXCITING.
21:21:03 >> Larry: DO YOU GUYS FRANKLY PINCH YOURSELVES?
21:21:05 I MEAN, DO YOU GET UP IN THE MORNING AND SAY, GEEZ?
21:21:09 >> I PINCH HIM. >> Larry: YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
21:21:11 >> IN THE MORNING. >> AND I PINCH HIM.
21:21:13 >> AND HE PINCHES ME. >> Larry: GETTING RISKY.
21:21:15 >> YEAH, WE'RE RISKY KIND OF GUYS, LARRY, EVEN ON NATIONAL
21:21:20 TELEVISION. WE JUST DON'T CARE.
21:21:22 COME ON, PINCH. >> ONCE A DAY.
21:21:26 OTHERWISE IT GETS -- >> THAT'S MY PINCH FOR THE DAY.
21:21:30 >> TELL HIM. HE WANTS TO KNOW.
21:21:31 >> WELL, LARRY, YOU KNOW WHAT. OF COURSE, IT'S TRUE.
21:21:35 OF COURSE WE DO. >> Larry: YOU CHANGED THE WORLD.
21:21:37 >> WE WERE JUST KIDS FROM LIVERPOOL AND, YEAH, IT IS QUITE
21:21:41 AMAZING BECAUSE AS TIME GOES ON IT KIND OF BECOMES MORE AND MORE
21:21:44 OF A PHENOMENON. >> Larry: IT GROWS.
21:21:47 >> AND THE YOUNG KIDS, YOU KNOW, TALK ABOUT IT LIKE AS IF IT'S
21:21:52 HISTORY WHICH IT IS. >> I THINK THE MOST EXCITING
21:21:54 THING IS THAT, YOU KNOW, WE EXPECT PEOPLE OUR AGE TO KNOW
21:21:58 THE MUSIC, BUT ACTUALLY A LOT OF THE KIDS KNOW THE MUSIC, AND IF
21:22:03 ANYTHING IS LEFT, WE HAVE LEFT REALLY GOOD MUSIC, AND THAT'S
21:22:07 THE IMPORTANT PART, NOT THE MOP TOPS OR WHATEVER.
21:22:11 >> Larry: YOU JOINED THEM AFTER THEY WERE --
21:22:14 >> NOTHING. >> Larry: YOU MADE THEM?
21:22:15 >> THEY WERE NOTHING. >> WE WERE NOTHING UNTIL HE
21:22:17 JOINED US. >> AND THEN I JOINED AND THEY
21:22:19 GOT THIS RECORD DEAL AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENED.
21:22:22 >> YEAH. >> EVERYBODY FEELS THAT --
21:22:25 >> WE WERE GOOD. YOU WANTED TO JOIN US.
21:22:26 YOU BEGGED TO JOIN US. >> I DIDN'T BEG.
21:22:28 >> WE WERE REALLY GOOD. >> OH, SURE.
21:22:32 >> Larry: WERE YOU ALL OF YOU FRIENDLY?
21:22:34 I MEAN -- >> I'LL TELL YOU -- OKAY.
21:22:36 I CAN TELL YOU THIS. WE LOVED HIM.
21:22:38 WE WERE IN HAMBURG, AND WE WERE A GOOD LITTLE GROUP.
21:22:41 >> Larry: BIG IN GERMANY. >> YEAH, IN HAMBURG.
21:22:45 >> NOT GERMANY, JUST HAMBURG, BUT RINGO WAS IN THIS OTHER
21:22:53 GROUP AND WE JUST THOUGHT HE WAS THE VERY BEST DRUMMER WE'D EVER
21:22:56 SEEN, AND WE WANTED HIM IN THE GROUP.
21:22:59 IT WAS KIND OF LIKE THAT, SO WE WERE BIG FANS OF HIS.
21:23:01 >> AND I WAS BIG FANS OF THEIRS. THAT'S HOW IT WENT.
21:23:05 >> Larry: DID YOU THINK THE BEATLES WOULD MAKE IT MAKE IT?
21:23:07 >> WE THOUGHT WE'D BE REALLY BIG IN LIVERPOOL.
21:23:11 >> Larry: REALLY, BIG AT HOME? >> YEAH.
21:23:13 >> AND THEN WE WERE SORT OF BIG IN LONDON, YOU KNOW, ENGLAND,
21:23:17 AND THEN SWEDEN AND DENMARK. I MEAN, WE DIDN'T JUST DO IT
21:23:21 OVERNIGHT. WE HAD TO GO ON A LOT OF PLANES.
21:23:23 >> Larry: WHEN IT TOOK OFF, AND THAT FIRST TRIP TO THE UNITED
21:23:25 STATES, WHAT WAS THAT LIKE? >> THAT WAS SOMETHING ELSE, I
21:23:29 MUST SAY. WE DIDN'T KNOW THAT THAT CROWD
21:23:33 AND THAT PANDEMONIUM WAS GOING TO BE AT THE AIRPORT.
21:23:36 WE TOOK OFF, AND WE KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE GOOD, AND WE WERE --
21:23:40 YOU KNOW, THE THING IS WE WERE PRETTY SURE OF OURSELVES.
21:23:44 YOU HAD TO BE, YOU KNOW, TO DO WHAT WE DID, SO WE KNEW WE WERE
21:23:48 GOOD. WE HAD A DEGREE OF SUCCESS, BUT
21:23:50 WE DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS GOING TO GREET US.
21:23:52 >> WE DIDN'T KNOW IT WOULD BE THAT BIG?
21:23:54 WE CAME DOWN THE STEPS. >> TO BACKTRACK A LITTLE BIT,
21:23:57 GEORGE HAD ACTUALLY COME ON HOLIDAY TO AMERICA AND WE WERE
21:24:00 USED TO IN EUROPE THE BIG CROWDS AND THE ADULATION, AND HE CAME
21:24:04 BACK, BECAUSE HE WAS GOING INTO RECORD STORES, YOU KNOW, HAVE
21:24:07 YOU GOT THE BEATLES. NEVER HEARD OF THEM, AND HE CAME
21:24:11 BACK AND SAID OH, IT'S GOING TO BE REALLY HARD.
21:24:13 THEY DON'T KNOW US OVER THERE, BUT BY THE TIME WE ARRIVED, IT
21:24:17 WAS GREAT. >> Larry: AND WHAT A STORY.
21:24:20 WHERE WERE YOU WHEN JOHN PASSED? >> WHEN JOHN PASSED I WAS IN
21:24:26 SUSSEX AT MY HOME IN SUSSEX. THAT'S WHERE I WAS.
21:24:30 >> Larry: SOMEBODY CALL YOU? >> YEAH, MY MANAGER AT THE TIME
21:24:33 CALLED ME, AND IT WAS JUST A SHOCK OF ALL SHOCKS, YOU KNOW.
21:24:38 >> Larry: GEORGE, WHERE WERE YOU?
21:24:40 >> GEORGE. >> Larry: RINGO.
21:24:42 >> THIS IS RINGO. >> I WAS IN THE BAHAMAS.
21:24:46 >> Larry: I WAS GETTING TO GEORGE.
21:24:48 >> SHUT UP, IT'S MY TURN. >> HE GOT YOUR NAME WRONG ON
21:24:51 NATIONAL TELEVISION. WE CAN'T CUT IT.
21:24:52 IT'S LIVE. >> ANYWAY, I WAS IN THE BAHAMAS,
21:24:56 AND THE KIDS CALLED AND SAID WE'VE HEARD SOMETHING LIKE JOHN
21:24:59 HAS BEEN HURT. WHAT?
21:25:00 AND THEN WE GOT A CALL THAT JOHN HAD ACTUALLY BEEN SERIOUSLY
21:25:04 HURT, AND WE JUST GOT A PLANE TO NEW YORK, SAID HELLO TO YOKO.
21:25:11 YOU KNOW, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
21:25:13 IT'S SO WEIRD, AND THEN IT WAS SO CRAZY THERE, AND I DIDN'T
21:25:17 THINK WE WERE HELPING THE SITUATION BECAUSE THERE WAS
21:25:22 ANOTHER FAB IN TOWN AND THEN WE WENT BACK TO L.A. AND THEN WE
21:25:27 WENT BACK TO BAHAMAS. >> Larry: WAS GEORGE'S PASSING
21:25:30 EXPECTED? >> YEAH.
21:25:31 >> Larry: BECAUSE YOU KNEW HOW SICK HE WAS?
21:25:33 >> WE ALL KNEW AND HE KNEW. BUT IT WAS GREAT.
21:25:37 YOU KNOW, IN ALL THESE -- WELL, ACTUALLY IN JOHN'S CASE, I WAS
21:25:41 GOING TO SAY IN ALL THESE TRAGEDIES IN, GEORGE'S CASE IN,
21:25:44 THAT TRAGEDY, THERE WERE SOME GOOD THINGS ABOUT IT, AND IN
21:25:50 JOHN'S CASE THERE WEREN'T. WELL, WITH GEORGE, I GOT TO SEE
21:25:54 HIM. >> Larry: OH, YOU DID?
21:25:55 >> A SHORT TIME BEFORE HE DIED, AND IT WAS JUST THE BEST BECAUSE
21:25:59 WE JUST -- WE SATELLITE THIS, IF YOU DON'T MIND.
21:26:02 WE SAT AND JUST STROKING HANDS LIKE THIS, AND THIS IS A GUY,
21:26:05 YOU KNOW, I'D KNOWN SINCE HE WAS A LITTLE KID AND YOU DON'T
21:26:08 STROKE HANDS WITH GUYS LIKE THAT, YOU KNOW.
21:26:11 IT WAS JUST BEAUTIFUL. >> NOT UNLESS YOU'RE SECURE.
21:26:15 >> WE JUST SPENT A COUPLE OF HOURS AND HE WAS REALLY LOVELY.
21:26:18 IT WAS LIKE FAVORITE MEMORY OF MINE.
21:26:21 >> Larry: WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK ON THIS AUSPICIOUS, WONDERFUL
21:26:25 OCCASION. RIGHT BACK WITH MORE OF PAUL AND
21:26:27 RINGO. DON'T GO AWAY.
21:26:31 A CROWD OF PEOPLE STOOD AND STARED

21:30:35 >> THANK YOU. >> Larry: THAT COMMERCIAL FOR
21:30:38 THAT RECORD WITH YOU KIND OF IN A CARTOON FIGURE WALKING.
21:30:41 WAS THAT YOUR IDEA IN. >> THAT, THAT WAS THEIR IDEA.
21:30:45 THEY ARE VERY CLEVER PEOPLE. >> Larry: IT'S REALLY A GREAT
21:30:48 SPOT. THE ALBUM IS DOING GREAT, RIGHT?
21:30:49 >> THE ALBUM IS DOING GREAT, THANK YOU.
21:30:53 >> Larry: YOU COULDN'T DRUM WITH HIM ON THAT?
21:30:54 >> I COULDN'T DRUM WITH HIM ON THAT BECAUSE HE WAS IN ANOTHER
21:30:58 COUNTRY. >> Larry: YOU WOULD HAVE USED
21:30:59 HIM THOUGH. >> I USED HIM ALL THE TIME.
21:31:02 >> GET THE ORCHESTRA READY. >> Larry: HOW ARE YOU DOING
21:31:06 RINGO? >> DOING REALLY WELL.
21:31:07 >> Larry: LIFE TREATING YOU WELL?

21:31:14 >> SHE'S GORGEOUS AND SHE'S GREAT.
21:31:16 >> Larry: AND YOU LIVE IN CALIFORNIA, RIGHT?
21:31:17 >> NO, I LIVE IN MONTE CAR LOW. I HAVE A HOME IN CALIFORNIA.
21:31:22 >> Larry: I KNEW THAT. >> AND I HAVE A HOME IN ENGLAND,
21:31:24 BUT, OF COURSE, THAT'S WHERE WE LIVE.
21:31:26 >> Larry: WITH THE SWELLS. >> YEAH.
21:31:27 >> Larry: AND PAUL, HOW ARE YOU ADJUSTING TO WHAT WAS TUMULTUOUS
21:31:31 TIMES? >> I'M OKAY.
21:31:32 THANK YOU, LARRY. THANK YOU FOR ASKING.
21:31:35 I'M DOING SURPRISINGLY WELL. >> Larry: THAT HAD TO BE ROUGH.
21:31:40 >> IT IS CURRENTLY -- CURRENTLY ROUGH.
21:31:42 >> Larry: STILL ROUGH. >> VERY ROUGH, BUT I DON'T TALK
21:31:44 ABOUT IT, AND THAT HELPS. >> Larry: THAT'S FAIR ENOUGH.
21:31:49 LIFE IS -- >> LIFE IS GOOD.
21:31:51 LIFE IS WONDERFUL, AND WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE, WHO NEEDS
21:31:55 LIFE? >> Larry: MUSICALLY NEITHER OF
21:31:58 YOU HAS TO KEEP ON GOING, CORRECT?
21:32:01 YOU DON'T NEED IT FINANCIALLY? >> WELL, REVERSE THAT.
21:32:04 >> Larry: WHAT DO YOU MEAN? >> YOU DON'T NEED TO DO IT
21:32:07 EITHER BUT THIS IS WHAT WE DO. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
21:32:09 >> Larry: I LOVE WHAT I DO. >> YOU'RE STILL PLAYING, YEAH,
21:32:12 THAT'S WHAT I DO. THAT'S WHAT HE DOES.
21:32:15 >> IT'S TRUE. >> YOU KNOW.
21:32:16 >> WE DO IT BECAUSE WE LOVE IT. IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE JUST LOVE
21:32:19 TO DO, AND YOU KNOW WHAT? THE AUDIENCES STILL LIKE IT SO
21:32:23 WHILE THEY LIKE IT. >> WE'LL DO IT.
21:32:25 >> Larry: SO THE DRIVE IS NOT FOR HOW MUCH THE RECORD SELLS?
21:32:30 IT'S HOW WELL DO THEY LIKE THE RECORD?
21:32:32 >> IT'S HOW MUCH YOU LIKE IT. >> YEAH.
21:32:35 >> FOR ME IT'S THE SELF-SATISFACTION THING.
21:32:38 PLAYING MUSIC IS SOMETHING I LIKE.
21:32:40 I THINK IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, PEOPLE AREN'T GOING TO LIKE IT.
21:32:42 >> I THINK IT'S A THRILL THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE LIKE THE RECORDS,
21:32:45 BUT YOU MAKE IT FOR YOURSELF AND, YOU KNOW, THAT'S -- THAT'S
21:32:51 WHAT YOU DO. YOU'RE NOT JUST SAYING OH, THEY
21:32:53 WILL LOVE THIS. THEY WILL LOVE THAT.
21:32:55 >> Larry: DO YOU STILL GET A KICK HEARING THE MUSIC OF THE
21:32:58 BEATLES? >> YEAH.
21:32:59 >> OH, YEAH. >> Larry: LIKE WHEN WE COME
21:33:01 BACK -- >> I LOVE IT.
21:33:04 >> GOOD GROUP, MAN. >> Larry: THEY WERE A GOOD
21:33:06 GROUP. >> AND ALL THE CLIPS ARE SO
21:33:08 GREAT. >> YEAH. SHOW TONIGHT AND THAT MUSIC
21:33:10 COMES ON AND YOU'RE WATCHING THE CANCER AND THE GYMNASTS, YOU
21:33:13 STILL GET A KICK OUT OF HEARING IN.
21:33:16 >> OH, YEAH. >> IT REALLY IS FANTASTIC.
21:33:17 WHEN WE WERE AT THE PREMIERE OF IT, WE WERE GETTING QUITE
21:33:24 EMOTIONAL, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE IT TRANSPORTS YOU BACK TO ACTUALLY
21:33:27 MAKING IT, AND THE MUSIC IN THIS SHOW IS SO CLEAR THAT, FOR
21:33:30 INSTANCE, RINGO'S DRUMS WHICH WERE LIKE THE CENTRAL GLUE IN
21:33:35 THE WHOLE BAND, YOU HEAR THEM SO CLEAR.
21:33:37 IT'S LIKE A MIRACLE, YOU KNOW. >> WE RAISED THEM UP A BIT WHICH
21:33:42 WAS VERY GOOD. >> AND YOU REALIZE JUST HOW GOOD
21:33:45 WE WERE. >> Larry: CENTRAL GLUE, THE
21:33:49 DRUMS ARE THE KEY TO THE BEATLES.
21:33:51 >> OH, I THINK SO. I THINK THE BASS IS TERRIFIC,
21:33:54 TOO. BASS WAS REALLY GOOD AS WELL.
21:33:56 >> THE BASS WAS BRILLIANT. >> I THOUGHT.
21:33:58 >> AND HE'S STILL THE MOST MELODIC BASS PLAYER ON THE
21:34:03 PLAYER. >> Larry: WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
21:34:04 >> IT MEANS HE'S MELODIC. >> HE PLAYS REALLY COOL BASS AND
21:34:08 PLAYS UNDERLINES AND OVERLINES OVER THE BASIC RHYTHM THAT A
21:34:12 BASS WOULD USUALLY PLAY. >> Larry: WHAT DO YOU THINK
21:34:15 YOU'VE MEANT IN THIS SCHEME OF THINGS?
21:34:16 YOU CAME THROUGH IN THE '60s. THE WORLD CHANGED.
21:34:19 DO YOU FEEL THE BEATLES WERE PART OF THE IMPACT OF THAT
21:34:23 CHANGE? >> YEAH, I THINK PART OF IT,
21:34:25 YEAH. WE WEREN'T IT ALL, BUT WE WERE
21:34:27 KIND OF SPOKESMEN FOR IT, AND IT'S REALLY GRATIFYING NOW FOR
21:34:30 PEOPLE TO STOP YOU IN THE STREET AND GO THANKS FOR THE MUSIC, YOU
21:34:35 KNOW. YOU SAVED MY LIFE, AND YOU HEAR
21:34:37 SO MUCH OF THAT, THAT IT IS JUST A PRIVILEGE TO HAVE BEEN --
21:34:41 >> PART OF IT. >> -- PART OF THOSE FOUR GUYS,
21:34:44 YOU KNOW. WE WERE TWO OF THOSE FOUR GUYS
21:34:46 AND IT'S FANTASTIC. >> UNDERLYING ALL OF THAT, AS
21:34:51 LADS, WE WERE. FOR ME PERSONALLY I'M AN ONLY
21:34:54 CHILD AND THEN I HAD THREE BROTHERS WHO, YOU KNOW,
21:34:57 SUPPORTED ME AND POINTED OUT IF I WAS GOING MAD OR POINTED OUT
21:35:03 THE JOY OF LIFE, YOU KNOW, WHEN IT WAS A DOWN DAY, YOU KNOW, AND
21:35:07 SO I'VE ALWAYS LOVED THAT, THAT, YOU KNOW, THE HUMAN CONTACT
21:35:12 AMONGST US WAS SO GREAT. >> CAN I TOUCH YOU.
21:35:16 >> NO ONE ELSE CAN TALK TO US. >> CAN I STROKE YOU NOW.
21:35:19 IT'S TRUE THOUGH. >> Larry: WE'LL TAKE A BREAK AND
21:35:21 BRING ALL FOUR ON, THE WIDOWS AND THE LIVING.
21:35:26 >> WIDOWS. >> Larry: SERIOUSLY, I'LL GET
21:35:30 EMOTIONAL. THIS IS REALLY INCREDIBLE.
21:35:32 >> YEAH. >> Larry: SITTING AROUND YOU
21:35:33 GUYS. YOU CHANGED THE WORLD.
21:35:36 >> YOU KNOW -- >> Larry: INCREDIBLE.
21:35:37 >> IT'S SOMETHING WE'RE VERY PROUD OF.
21:35:39 >> Larry: YOU OUGHT TO BE. LIKE YOU SAY, YOU PINCH
21:35:42 YOURSELF. >> WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK, ALL FOUR
21:35:44 OF THEM. DON'T GO AWAY.
21:35:47 YES I'M GONNA BE A STAR
21:36:07 I'D LIKE TO BE UNDER THE SEA IN AN OCTOPUS' GARDEN
21:36:17 WE WOULD BE WARM BELOW THE STORM IN OUR LITTLE HIDEAWAY
21:36:22 BENEATH THE WAVES BENEATH THE WAVES
21:38:58 BENEATH THE >> I THINK IT'S A FINE ALBUM.
21:39:02 I'M NOT A GREAT ONE THAT MAYBE IT WAS -- IT'S GREAT, IT SOLD.
21:39:08 IT'S A BLOODY BEATLES ALBUM. SHUT UP.
21:39:17 YOU SAY YOU WANT A REVOLUTION,
21:39:22 WELL, YOU KNOW WE ALL WANT TO CHANGE THE
21:39:28 WORLD >> Larry: AND WE'RE IN THE
21:39:31 REVOLUTION LOUNGE. >> YEAH.
21:39:33 >> Larry: HERE IN LAS VEGAS WITH RINGO AND PAUL.
21:39:37 I SAID THAT THEY WILL ALL BE GATHERING WITH US IN THE NEXT
21:39:39 BREAK, BUT WE WANTED TO SHOW YOU A LITTLE PACKAGE FIRST AND GET
21:39:42 THEIR REACTION TO IT. THE CIRQUE DU SOLEIL'S
21:39:45 PRODUCTION OF THE BEATLES IS A UNIQUE ENTERTAINMENT EXPERIENCE
21:39:48 BUT BEHIND THE MIND-BLOG ON-STAGE MAGIC A LOT OF ON STAGE
21:39:54 CREATIVE ENERGY. WATCH.
21:39:56 I'M BACK IN THE USSR YOU DON'T KNOW HOW LUCKY YOU
21:40:00 ARE, BOYS BACK IN THE USSR
21:40:03 >> THE POTENTIAL OF THIS SHOW IS SO GREAT.
21:40:05 THE TALENT OF THESE GUYS IS -- IS ALREADY LIKE AT A VERY GREAT
21:40:13 ALBUM. LIKE THE BEATLES DID, THEY
21:40:14 PUSHED THE BOUNDARIES OF THEIR OWN MUSIC SO WE WANT TO PUSH THE
21:40:18 BOUNDARIES OF THE SHOW FOR THE BEST
21:40:23 >> Larry: WHAT MAKES SO MANY OF THE SONGS YOU'VE DONE SPECIAL?
21:40:25 >> IT GIVES PEOPLE A CHANCE TO PEEL BACK THE LAYERS THAT HAVE
21:40:32 BEEN GATHERED FOR YEARS. THE BEATLES WERE IN THEIR 20s
21:40:36 WHEN THEY WERE PLAYING. HERE AND IN THIS STUDIO, IN THE
21:40:40 THEATER, THEY ARE STILL IN THEIR 20s
21:40:42 BABY YOU CAN DRIVE MY CAR AND MAYBE I LOVE YOU
21:40:49 THERE WILL BE A SHOW TONIGHT >> Larry: EVERYTHING THAT
21:40:53 HAPPENS HAS TO FIT THE SONG THAT'S PLAYING?
21:40:57 >> YEAH. SO NORMALLY WE BUILD OUR SHOW
21:40:59 AND THE MUSIC WOULD FOLLOW AND SUPPORT.
21:41:01 NOW WE HAVE TO WORK ON THE MUSIC SO BASICALLY WHAT WE'VE DONE IS
21:41:06 I WENT TO LONDON WORKING WITH GEORGE MARTIN AND GILES MARTIN
21:41:10 AND HIS SON. >> WE TOOK ONE OF THE MASTERS
21:41:13 FROM "ABBEY ROAD," BROUGHT THEM OVER TO VEGAS AND PRODUCED THE
21:41:17 MUSIC FOR THE SHOW IN A WAY WHERE WE WERE REPLICATING
21:41:24 EVERYTHING WE HEARD ON "ABBEY ROAD."
21:41:26 THESE ARE THE MASTER TAPES. >> Larry: CAN WE HEAR A LITTLE
21:41:30 SOUND. >> THIS IS WHAT WE DID FOR THE
21:41:32 BEGINNING. THIS IS THE VERY BEGINNING SO
21:41:33 THE DRUMS YOU'RE HEARING HERE ARE ACTUALLY FROM ANOTHER SONG.
21:41:38 WE JUST PUT THEM IN THE END OF "ABBEY ROAD," AND THEN WHAT YOU
21:41:44 GET IS "GET BACK" AND THESE ARE TWO SONGS.
21:41:52 >> Larry: LET'S LISTEN.
21:41:55 JOJO WAS A MAN WHO THOUGHT HE WAS AN OWNER
21:42:03 JOJO LEFT HIS HOME IN TUCSON, ARIZONA, BOSTON, CALIFORNIA
21:42:10 HELP, I NEED SOMEBODY HELP
21:42:13 NOT JUST ANYBODY >> WE DECIDED TO BRING THE
21:42:18 ROLLERBLADE ON STAGE FOR A VERY AMAZING ACROBATIC MOMENT BASED
21:42:22 ON THE "HELP" SONG, WHERE THE BEATLES ARE SO GLORIOUS BUT
21:42:27 STILL LIKE LOOKING FOR SOMEWHERE TO ESCAPE.
21:42:29 >> Larry: SEE YOU TONIGHT. I'M THE WALRUS
21:42:35 >> I DECIDED TO BRING "THE WALRUS" INTO THIS UNIVERSE AS
21:42:39 THE FREE MIND THAT WOULD TURN THIS SAD WORLD INTO A COLORFUL
21:42:42 WORLD.
21:42:49 >> Larry: WHAT IS THAT CALLED? >> LOOKED JUST LIKE YOU.
21:42:56 >> Larry: WE COULD BE TWIN BROTHERS.
21:42:57 >> JUST THE SAME. >> Larry: WHAT DO YOU THINK OF
21:43:00 ALL THE BEHIND-THE-SCENES STUFF? >> IT'S GREAT.
21:43:05 WE'VE BEEN DOWN TO VISIT THEM AND ENCOURAGE THEM AND STUFF.
21:43:08 >> Larry: WHEN MUSIC IS REMASTERED WHEN THEY WERE
21:43:10 SHOWING US, MR. MARTIN, WHAT DOES THAT MEAN TO YOU AS A
21:43:13 MUSICIAN? >> WELL, ACTUALLY THAT WAS NOT
21:43:16 ONLY REMASTERED. THAT WAS PUT INTO A SYSTEM WHICH
21:43:19 MADE IT 5.1 WHICH MADE IT SURROUND SOUND.
21:43:23 WHEN WE MADE A LOT OF THE MUSIC IT WAS MONO WHICH WENT TO STEREO
21:43:27 AND NOW IT'S GONE TO SURROUND SOUND 5.1, BUT INCREDIBLE THINGS
21:43:33 WHEN YOU HEAR IT IS PAUL AND I WENT TO LISTEN TO THE MUSIC IN
21:43:36 5.1 AND WE GO, WHOA, LISTEN TO THAT.
21:43:38 YOU KNOW, YOU CAN HEAR EVERYTHING NOW.
21:43:40 THINGS THAT WE BURIED A LOT. IT'S ALL VERY CLEAR, SO IT'S
21:43:44 REALLY GREAT TO HEAR IT. >> Larry: SO IT'S IMPROVING IT.
21:43:47 >> YEAH. >> IT'S IMPROVING IT, YEAH.
21:43:51 I WILL SAY THAT MOST HISTORIC STUFF GOES DOWN WITH AGE, YOU
21:43:57 KNOW. WINSTON CHURCHILL'S OLD PAPERS
21:43:59 GO BROWN AND CRINKLESY AND OUR MUSIC GETS BRIGHTER AND
21:44:03 SHINEIER. >> Larry: MODERN TECHNOLOGY.
21:44:04 >> HOW DO THEY DO IT. >> Larry: HOW DO THEY DO IT?
21:44:07 WE DON'T KNOW. >> NEXT WE ARE IT WILL BE 10.1.
21:44:10 >> Larry: WE'LL BE BACK WITH PAUL, RINGO, YOKO, OLIVIA AND
21:44:16 GUY. DON'T GO AWAY.
21:44:20 I AM HERE AND YOU ARE HERE AND
21:44:24 YOU ARE ME AND WE ARE ALL TOGETHER
21:44:36 WAITING FOR THE BAND TO COME
21:45:01 I AM THE WALRUS >> COMING UP AT THE TOP OF THE
21:47:41 HOUR ON "360," WHILE WASHINGTON TALKS THE BATTLE ON THE BORDER
21:47:45 HEATS UP. WHAT HAS AND HASN'T BEEN DONE ON
21:47:47 THE BORDER WHILE POLITICIANS DEBATE.
21:47:50 HOW VIOLENT CRIMINALS CAN SNEAK ACROSS AND GO TO AN AMERICAN
21:47:58 TOWN WHERE SPANISH IS THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE.
21:48:00 WE'LL TAKE A LOOK AT THE DEATH OF WRESTLER CHRIS BENOIT WHO
21:48:04 POLICE SAY MURDERED HIS WIFE AND CHILD BEFORE MURDERING HIMSELF.
21:48:07 WE'LL DIG INTO THE FACTS OF THECATION AND DETAILS AS TO WHY
21:48:10 SO MANY PROFESSIONAL WRESTLERS DIE YOUNG.
21:48:13 THAT AND MORE AT THE TOP OF THE HOUR ON "360."
21:48:18 NOTHING THAT YOU CAN KNOW IS KNOWN
21:48:23 NOTHING THAT YOU CAN SEE THAT ISN'T SHOWN
21:48:30 IT'S EASY ALL YOU NEED IT LOVE
21:48:37 ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE LOVE S LOVE
21:48:47 ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE, LOVE
21:48:48 LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE
21:48:54 >> Larry: THIS IS HISTORIC. THEY ARE ALL TOGETHER.
21:48:56 PAUL McCARTNEY, RING ORE STARR, YOKO ONO, OLIVIA HARRISON AND
21:49:02 GUY LALIBERTE, THE FOUNDER OF CIRQUE DU SOLEIL.
21:49:04 A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS AS WE SWING AROUND FOR EACH.
21:49:07 IS IT HARD, OLIVIA, TO LOOK AT GEORGE?
21:49:11 >> WELL, IT'S, YOU KNOW, THE FUTURE OF DUALITY.
21:49:14 IT'S GREAT TO LOOK AT HIM AND, OF COURSE, IT'S VERY EMOTIONAL,
21:49:19 TOO. >> Larry: SO IT'S -- MIXED
21:49:20 EMOTIONS? >> I WAS TRYING TO AVOID THAT
21:49:22 WORD BITTERSWEET BUT IT IS LIKE THAT.
21:49:25 >> Larry: YOKO, WHAT'S IT LIKE TO LOOK AT JOHN?
21:49:27 >> YOU KNOW, IT'S VERY DIFFICULT SOMETIMES.
21:49:31 I FEEL THAT I GOT USED TO SORT OF JUST WATCH THESE MOVIES AND
21:49:36 ALL THAT, BUT WHEN I SAW THE STAGE, AT ONE POINT I SUDDENLY
21:49:43 JUST GOT CHOKED UP. I DON'T KNOW WHY.
21:49:45 >> Larry: DO YOU GET NERVOUS ABOUT EVERY PERFORMANCE, GUY?
21:49:49 >> NO. >> Larry: YOU'VE GOT HOW MANY
21:49:52 CIRQUE DU SOLEILS GOING NOW? >> I HAVE 13, OVER A THOUSAND
21:49:56 ARTIST. >> Larry: DO YOU SIT UP THERE
21:49:57 AND THINK AT NIGHT HE'S GOING TO FALL?
21:49:59 >> WE KNOW WHERE THE RISKS ARE MORE THAN OTHER PLACE AND
21:50:02 THERE'S ALWAYS A MOMENT OF TENSION BUT I HAVE GREAT
21:50:04 CONFIDENCE IN THE PEOPLE WORKING FOR ME.
21:50:06 >> Larry: LINGO, DO YOU HAVE TO PLAY DRUMS A LOT?
21:50:08 DO YOU HAVE TO KEEP IN SHAPE? >> NO.
21:50:11 >> IN A WORD. >> Larry: HOW DO YOU --
21:50:15 >> I'VE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO LIKE SIT AROUND ON MY OWN AND PLAY
21:50:18 DRUMS, LIKE PRACTICE IN THE BACK ROOM.
21:50:20 NEVER BEEN ABLE TO. I'VE ALWAYS PLAYED WITH OTHER
21:50:23 MUSICIANS. >> THAT'S UNIQUE, ISN'T IT?
21:50:25 >> THAT'S HOW I PLAY. THERE'S NO JOY FOR ME JUST TO BE
21:50:29 ON MY OWN BASHING AWAY. I NEED A BASS PLAYER, PIANO,
21:50:34 GUITAR, WHATEVER, AND NOW I CAN PLAY.
21:50:36 >> Larry: AND WHEN YOU'RE DRUMMING.
21:50:39 >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> Larry: DO YOU KNOW HOW GOOD
21:50:40 THEY ARE SINGING? >> WELL, I PLAY WITH THE SINGER.
21:50:43 IF YOU LISTEN TO THE BEATLE SONGS, THE TRACKS --
21:50:46 >> Larry: YOU PLAYED FOR THE SINGER?
21:50:48 >> I PLAYED FOR THE SINGER BECAUSE IF HE'S SINGING THERE'S
21:50:52 NO GOOD ME BOOINGYING ALL OVER THE KIT SO IT'S JUST STAY OUT,
21:50:56 HOLD THE TIME. IF YOU NEED TO RAISE IT, RAISE
21:51:00 IT AND BRING IT DOWN, AND IN THE BAND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, WE HAD
21:51:04 A LOT OF GOOD SINGING. >> Larry: WHAT MADE THE BEATLES,
21:51:07 PAUL, MUSICALLY SPECIAL? WHAT DID THEY DO THAT PEOPLE
21:51:12 WEREN'T DOING? >> THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.
21:51:15 I DON'T REALLY THINK I KNOW. WE WERE JUST VERY GOOD.
21:51:21 I THINK INDIVIDUALLY WE WERE KIND OF TALENTED PEOPLE, BUT
21:51:26 WHEN WE CAME TOGETHER, SOMETHING SPECIAL HAPPENED.
21:51:30 WHEN I STARTED WRITING WITH JOHN, IT WAS SORT OF A MAGICAL
21:51:35 THING THAT GREW. WE DEVELOPED.
21:51:38 NOT EVERYONE DEVELOPED QUITE AS MUCH AS WE DID.
21:51:41 >> Larry: YOU CAN'T PLAN THAT THOUGH, CAN YOU?
21:51:43 >> NO, NOT REALLY. WE WERE ALSO VERY SURE OF
21:51:48 OURSELVES. I WOULDN'T CALL IT CONCEITED,
21:51:50 BUT WE JUST KNEW WE WERE GOOD, AND WE KNEW WE WERE GOING TO DO
21:51:54 VERY WELL. WE DIDN'T KNOW HOW IT WAS GOING
21:51:56 TO HAPPEN BUT WE KNEW -- PEOPLE WOULD SAY TO ME AT THE TIME DO
21:51:59 YOU THINK YOU'RE STUFF IS GOING TO BE STANDARDS, YOU KNOW, LIKE
21:52:02 SINATRA STUFF AND I WOULD GO YEAH, AND THEY WOULD SAY YES.
21:52:05 AND I WOULD SAY, NO, IT'S TRUE. YOU JUST FELT IT.
21:52:08 >> Larry: GUY, IS IT -- WAS IT DIFFICULT TO STAGE TO THAT
21:52:12 MUSIC? >> LISTEN, THE PRESSURE IS
21:52:16 ENORMOUS. >> Larry: I BET. BURN OF KIDS FROM MONTREAL,
21:52:21 QUEBEC ACHIEVING. >> Larry: WITH A BUNCH OF KIDS
21:52:22 FROM ENGLAND. >> FROM LIVERPOOL.
21:52:24 >> AND THIS IS WHERE WE CONNECT BECAUSE AT THE END WE SHARE THE
21:52:27 SAME VALUES. WE BELIEVE IN A BETTER WORLD AND
21:52:31 WE ARE LOVE CARRIERS AND THEY DID THAT WITH THEIR SONGS, THEIR
21:52:34 MUSIC AND WE'RE DOING IT WITH OUR SHOW AND THAT'S WHERE WE
21:52:37 CONNECT. >> THAT'S THE BIG KEY TO IT ALL.
21:52:39 THE SHOW IS CALLED "LOVE." I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS THAT
21:52:42 WE'RE PROBABLY PROUDEST OF, I CERTAINLY AM, IS THAT THE
21:52:45 MESSAGE WAS ALWAYS LOVE, IN ANY FORM WE PORTRAYED IT, AND THAT'S
21:52:49 SOMETHING TO BE REALLY PROUD OF. >> Larry: DID GEORGE MISS THE
21:52:52 GROUP? >> YEAH, I THINK HE DID, YOU
21:52:55 KNOW. ALL OF THEM HAD THEIR OWN TIME
21:52:58 APART, BUT, YEAH, I THINK HE DID.
21:53:00 I THINK HE ALWAYS LIKED TO HAVE -- HE USED TO SAY TO ME
21:53:05 SOMETIMES I WISH YOU PLAYED THE SAXOPHONE OR I WISH YOU WERE A
21:53:10 DRUMMER. >> Larry: WHAT ABOUT JOHN?
21:53:11 >> THE FIRST TIME I MET THEM SO TO SPEAK I WAS REALLY SURPRISED
21:53:14 THAT THEY HAD A SENSE OF HUMOR AND THAT WAS A BIG THING
21:53:16 BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, ALL THE COMPOSERS THAT I USED TO MEET UP
21:53:20 OR DO THINGS TOGETHER, THEY WERE VERY SERIOUS PEOPLE.
21:53:24 COMPOSERS WERE SERIOUS. >> Larry: THESE GUYS WEREN'T.
21:53:26 >> AND THESE GUYS WERE HEY, YOU KNOW.
21:53:28 THERE WAS A FUN ELEMENT. >> Larry: WE'RE RUNNING CLOSE ON
21:53:31 TIME BECAUSE WE HAVE A BIG FINALE HERE.
21:53:33 WE HAVE A PRODUCTION FINALE. WE'RE ALL GOING TO GO OUT AND BE
21:53:37 NEXT TO THE THEATER AND THE SHOW IS GOING TO BEGIN.
