Everything went fine at Sarah Lawrence College
While I was on stage I asked the kids to educate me on what exactly it is that they study there
A person shouted:
"We do whatever the hell we want"
I replied, "Well, that's what I've been doing all my life."
I asked what their parents paid for them to do whatever the hell they want and a girl in the front row said:
"$60,000 a year"
I said, "Well, that's what Walmart pays me to use my music in commercials and that maybe I could go to their school one day too 'cause they all seem like really nice people."
I explained that Kirk Hammett from Metallica went to college after Metallica made it, which was met with a thud
A nice girl named Sophie played piano on a few songs with us because my mic couldn't reach the piano
She played the four notes on "Richard Ramirez..." and "Carry Me Ohio" really, really, well
That was a lot of fun
We also played "When Doves Cry" in honor of Prince, who died the night before
Steve Shelley played drums with me that night, by the way
What a great drummer
Steve's also a really nice guy
Great acoustics in the room and the show went really well
And we got out of there by midnight
What a cool group of kids and a nice promoter named Max
It was the first show he ever promoted and he gave me a check in an envelope, which I actually didn't open until just now here in my New York hotel three nights after the gig
This is what his note said:
