Mike Finoia (1:53)
Yeah, and like a dead jam, it was a, everybody was perfectly imperfect. We had special guest appearances. We had some people leave the, first of all, anyone watching with the sound off, it's like, why is the bass player, the drummer and the guitar player meeting with the vendor?

75th birthday shows. That Santana out there.
Mike Finoia (2:33)
Yeah, it's just unbelievable. And these are two conversations that could, like the two of them could eat, like we totally should have them on their own as well because it would be so fun to hear like the little deviations that we could have taken at different times, but this was such an honor.
Oteil Burbridge (2:52)
Yeah, the way it worked out was perfect. Yeah, and now it's really got me because we've group texted and stuff or texted each other individually, but I haven't seen their faces, like seeing Comente's face that when we had them on the podcast, that's the first time I'd seen it in a while, you know, it's like, wow, John's hair is a lot longer. And I mean, I've seen it in pictures or on Instagram, whatever, but like live to just talk and see Bill all shaved up and it's really incredible, man.
