video camera and ordered the disco ball how's it going with the Laura I really

don't think this is such a good idea please it's the only way to save the pot

so I did about getting the band back together again I don't know I haven't seen those guys in years I don't even

know if they want to see me I guess I'm mostly nervous but I did hear Styx is

working at the Benny haha well let's go see him

long time ago what makes you think they're gonna forgive you now after you left them behind I'm I'm sure they've

forgotten about all that have you Grandpa are you coming yeah

wait up so why did the band break out all

relationships have a beat kind of like this whatever the melody does around it the beat remains steady now if you take

away the beat you have nothing except maybe a bandmate

with a bruise would you please look before throwing around metaphors hey man it hurts when you lose the beat I still

haven't had any luck tracking down now well I know where Big Daddy Al is you do

the band Dennis and I were best friends we thought we might have something so we decided to put a band together The

Groovy Brothers started getting big we got popular so quickly and I was so young it was so

much the fans the theme the fortune the headlines you should have seen them they said I was brilliant in the best wood

block player that ever lived I let it all go to my head and at the height of the band's success I walked away

but why did you leave I wanted all the spotlight so I started a solo career I

was the best wood block soloist in the business had three hit singles knock on wood wood Night in Bangkok and I Heard

it Through the Wood block I know the guys didn't want me to go but I didn't care I was very selfish

but after all my success I couldn't shake the fact that I did it by hurting my friends

I tried to go back but they wouldn't have me I think I hurt Dennis the most we were best friends and I let him down

I don't think he'll ever forgive me Grandpa how are you gonna do the show without Dennis I don't know Laura I

don't know [Music]
