It happens, you know. It happened Lionel Richie. It happens to the best of us.
**Craig Carton** (0:05)
Lionel Richie, I will never forgive you, Lionel Richie. Well, by the way, he's back at The Carton coming up, as a matter of fact.
**Chris McMonigle** (0:11)
I think he is.
**Craig Carton** (0:11)
I'll never forgive you, Lionel.
**Chris McMonigle** (0:14)
Well, hopefully Don Tolliver will be there and be caller number one right now at 866-540-WFN. That's 866-540-9326. For your chance to win a pair of tickets to see Don Tolliver at Barclay Center on September 6th from our friends at Live Nation to purchase tickets visit livenation.com.
**Craig Carton** (0:31)
There you go. I'll never forgive you.
Walking in, he cancels the show and our efforts are supposed to start Lionel Richie. Matter of fact, I should make Lionel Richie have to come into the studio and do a sit down with us till we can move past that. Because I love Lionel Richie. I love the Commodores.
**Chris McMonigle** (0:48)
Yeah, I'm sure you do.
**Craig Carton** (0:49)
I do. But I want to go see him.
**Chris McMonigle** (0:51)
Before you know it, five minutes in, Big Mac singing Dancing on the Ceiling. You know, I know how it goes.
**Craig Carton** (0:55)
Dancing on the ceiling.
**Chris McMonigle** (0:56)
I know how it goes.
**Craig Carton** (0:58)
If I was going to have you sing a Lionel Richie song.
**Chris McMonigle** (1:00)
Hello.
**Craig Carton** (1:00)
Would it be hello?
**Chris McMonigle** (1:01)
That's what I would do, yeah.
**Craig Carton** (1:02)
How could you not, right? Is it me you're looking for?
**Chris McMonigle** (1:13)
Yeah.
**Craig Carton** (1:13)
Yeah.
**Chris McMonigle** (1:14)
Didn't see it that night, no.
**Craig Carton** (1:15)
Lionel Richie, dead to me. Until he apologizes.
**Chris McMonigle** (1:19)
So personally to you.
Yes. He needs to personally apologize to you.
**Craig Carton** (1:24)
Matter of fact, he's going to be at the Garden. Can you check the date? I know he's coming up soon. He's going to be at the Garden, I think, with... I want to say Earth, Wind & Fire, whatever's left of them.
Fact check me on that. Anyway, I'd like him to go on stage and say, look, I know a year ago, a year and a half ago, I kind of blew you guys off and screwed you, but I want to let you know to Craig Carton. I'm sorry.
**Chris McMonigle** (1:47)
Lionel Richie with Earth, Wind & Fire, Madison Square Garden, Saturday, July 11th, next Saturday.
**Craig Carton** (1:51)
July 11th?
**Chris McMonigle** (1:52)
Next Saturday.
**Craig Carton** (1:52)
All right. Well, there you go.
**Chris McMonigle** (1:54)
And then he'll be at UBS.
**Craig Carton** (1:55)
Got it. Yeah, but I only care about the garden.
**Chris McMonigle** (1:58)
Well, I'm just telling you, he'll be at UBS.
**Craig Carton** (2:00)
Yeah, but I'm not going to go see the UBS. I'll see you at the garden.
**Chris McMonigle** (2:02)
I'm just giving information to the people.
**Craig Carton** (2:04)
Yeah, but he didn't blow off the people at UBS.
**Chris McMonigle** (2:06)
He blew off the people at the garden.
**Craig Carton** (2:08)
Oh, all right. Three days later. I wonder when Lionel's going to get into town.
He didn't get into town on the 11th.
**Chris McMonigle** (2:16)
Well, he'll be in Hartford on the 10th. Oh, that's a garbage day.
He'll be in Boston on the 8th. He'll be in Canada for the 4th of July.
**Craig Carton** (2:23)
Is that right?
**Chris McMonigle** (2:24)
Yeah.
**Craig Carton** (2:24)
That seems un-anti-American.
**Chris McMonigle** (2:26)
He'll be in Toronto on July 4th.
**Craig Carton** (2:27)
You have big July 4th plans, celebrate our 250th?
**Chris McMonigle** (2:30)
We go to a buddy's house. We've been doing it the last three or four years.
**Craig Carton** (2:32)
That's nice.
**Chris McMonigle** (2:33)
He's got a nice pool. He's got two young sons like mine.
**Craig Carton** (2:35)
Is it a potluck thing, like you and Sarah have to bring something?
**Chris McMonigle** (2:37)
Sarah's a big pie person. We always bring...
**Craig Carton** (2:40)
Just for July 4th or just any time?
**Chris McMonigle** (2:41)
If we go places, she usually brings pie. There's like a good, very pie place. No.
**Craig Carton** (2:46)
I'm sorry?
**Chris McMonigle** (2:47)
No, she doesn't make the pie.
**Craig Carton** (2:48)
So she's not a pie person. Well, she's a pie purchaser.
**Chris McMonigle** (2:50)
She's a pie bringer.
**Craig Carton** (2:51)
She's a pie purchaser person.
**Chris McMonigle** (2:52)
She's a purchaser of pie. Yes. And she's a bringer of pie.
**Craig Carton** (2:55)
Yeah, but that's said to me...
