"And you lost your <Speech_Male> voice, <Speech_Male> and he said something <Speech_Male> to me that I thought <Speech_Male> was kind of <Speech_Male> fascinating. You said, <Speech_Male> well, you can tell <Speech_Male> he's been in Freudian <Speech_Male> analysis. <Speech_Male> Long time. <Speech_Male> Do you remember <Speech_Male> what he said <SpeakerChange> to you? <Speech_Male> I had <Speech_Male> not song <Speech_Male> or performed <Speech_Male> my own music <Speech_Male> for 30 years. <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> At that point. <Speech_Male> So <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> I'm we experiencing <Speech_Male> them for the first time. <Speech_Male> And <Speech_Male> I couldn't get <Speech_Male> through <Speech_Male> a lot of the songs <Speech_Male> without crying. <Speech_Male> And when you <Silence> cry, you <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> your voice tightens <Speech_Male> up. It was just an odd <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> phenomenon that I had <Speech_Male> never experienced before, <Speech_Male> because <Speech_Male> you realize <Speech_Male> that you didn't have <Speech_Male> the buffer, you know, <Speech_Male> the buffer of <Speech_Male> doing <Speech_Male> things over and over. <Speech_Male> You know, the repetition <Speech_Male> and the <SpeakerChange> redundancy <Speech_Male> and <Speech_Male> you <Speech_Male> put away <Speech_Male> the <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> that raw <Speech_Male> emotion that creates <Speech_Male> the song. <Speech_Male> You get a little distance <Speech_Male> from it. <Speech_Male> And what <Silence> happened was <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> suddenly I was <Speech_Male> thinking about the words that <Speech_Male> I'm singing. <Speech_Male> And <Speech_Male> feeling that that <Speech_Male> interaction <Speech_Male> with those <Speech_Male> chord changes in <Speech_Male> the melodies and <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> it was just <Speech_Music_Male> pure emotion. <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> In <Speech_Male> a way that you don't usually <Speech_Male> experience it <Speech_Male> because you <Speech_Male> have that little <Speech_Male> bit of distance <Speech_Male> from doing it. <Speech_Male> And <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> Bruce had it. <Speech_Male> Had <Speech_Male> a psychological <Speech_Male> psychoanalytical <Speech_Male> take on <Speech_Male> it, which was <Speech_Male> yeah. <Speech_Male> Did you buy what he said? <Speech_Male> Or was it <Speech_Male> could <Speech_Male> be true? <SpeakerChange> Could <Speech_Male> be true, you know? <Speech_Male> Yeah. <Speech_Male> You run one of the only channels <Speech_Male> that a <Speech_Male> breaks new bands <Speech_Male> and B plays <Speech_Male> new music by <Speech_Male> older artists. <Speech_Male> So you seem to <Speech_Male> be the person <Speech_Male> who might know this. <Speech_Male> What is <Speech_Male> next for rock music? <Speech_Male> The <SpeakerChange> music <Speech_Male> you love. <Speech_Male> I don't know. <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> I've <Speech_Male> spent the last 20 <Speech_Male> years trying to rebuild <Speech_Male> an infrastructure for <Speech_Male> it, <Speech_Male> which is gone. <Speech_Male> We <Speech_Male> now have returned <Speech_Male> to being the <Speech_Male> cult where we started. <Speech_Male> You know, <Speech_Male> we returned to <Speech_Male> 1955. <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> So the <Speech_Male> job right now, I <Speech_Male> think <Speech_Male> is for us to <Speech_Male> try and rebuild <Speech_Male> an <Speech_Male> infrastructure that <Speech_Male> can at least <Speech_Male> create a healthy <Speech_Male> cult. <Speech_Male> We're never going to be mainstream <Speech_Male> again. <Speech_Male> That was a blip <Speech_Male> in a radar. <Speech_Male> An anomaly <Speech_Male> in <Speech_Male> history. That <Speech_Male> 30 year period <Speech_Male> where rock <Speech_Male> ruled, <Speech_Male> we probably <Speech_Male> belong in <Speech_Male> a cult, the <Speech_Male> truth is. <Speech_Male> But <Speech_Male> we're trying to make it <Speech_Male> a healthy cult where people <Speech_Male> can make a living doing <Speech_Male> it. And that's <Speech_Male> been the challenge. <Speech_Male> And <Speech_Male> what's <Silence> next <SpeakerChange> for your <Speech_Male> music? <Speech_Male> I don't know, <Speech_Male> you know, every <Speech_Male> record could be the last <Speech_Male> I <Speech_Male> write with purpose, <Speech_Male> so I don't <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> write all <Speech_Male> day long. <Speech_Male> I write <Speech_Male> when I have a reason <Speech_Male> to write. <Speech_Male> And <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> you know, that usually <Speech_Male> involves a <Speech_Male> record and using <Speech_Male> involves a tour <Speech_Male> unless it's something <Speech_Male> for a movie, <Speech_Male> which is <Speech_Male> possible. <Speech_Male> But <Speech_Male> it was very difficult <Speech_Male> touring <Speech_Male> these last two tours. <Speech_Male> 17, <Speech_Male> 18 and 19, <Speech_Male> the busiest <Speech_Male> I've ever been. <Speech_Male> 6 <Speech_Male> album packages, <Speech_Male> two new albums, <Speech_Male> sold fire and <Speech_Male> summer of sorcery <Speech_Male> and two world <Speech_Male> tours, but <Speech_Male> it was very difficult <Speech_Male> taking around <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> 15 piece band <Speech_Male> and <Speech_Male> 35 <Speech_Male> person <Speech_Male> touring party. <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> <Speech_Male> With, you know, <Speech_Male> I'm sure that's <Speech_Male> the only time that's ever <Speech_Male> happened with an artist <Speech_Male> with <SpeakerChange> no hits. <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> <Speech_Male> <Advertisement> <Speech_Male> You're the only guy who <Speech_Male> writes a book to unwind. <Speech_Male> Yeah. <Speech_Male> Thank you so much <Speech_Male> for talking.

"We're back with more of Stevie Van Zandt and Bruce had them. Let's go back a bit and talk about your relationship with Bruce Springsteen. When did you guys first meet? We met on the circuit, you know, the day before The Beatles played at Solomon. There was no bands in America the day after everyone had a band. And most of mostly most immersively stayed in the garage. But it doesn't of us got out. And we all knew each other because it was only literally a dozen bands if that in our area. So we all know each other. And then I started going to the village. I don't know an hour on the bus, but it was, you know, exotic. You know, it was unusual thing to do. I don't even know what would have occurred to me to do that. And they were thought about this before. But anyway, I started doing it and going to the cafe wall and you'd see bands all afternoon and then I'd come home Saturday night. And you would see things that were a year ahead of where New Jersey was. So I would, you know, steal what I could steal and use it with my band, you know? And I started running at the Bruce. Do the same thing. You are thinking about it now. It's pretty weird, you know? We've not only going the same part of town in New York City, but we're going to think club. It was dozens of clubs. So we got friendlier because of that and it started coming up to the city together and I go into his house and he started playing these songs, these writing. He was that far ahead. He was writing even then. You describe him as being very focused. Yeah, he's the most focused guy ever. He just knew exactly where he was going. He knew he and nothing was going to stop him. Nothing because there was no other. There really was no plan B for people like us. I mean, I was a little bit more, you know, I was a little bit more social than he was, you know, I took a bunch of jobs. You were construction. He never did that. Yeah, yeah, no. I don't know if he ever had any other job..

"Rock and roll in your club, you had to go to the kids. You know, because the older bands that were the show bands or the wedding bands, they didn't get it yet. They weren't playing this rock stuff yet. So, you know, if you want to hire a rock and roll band, you had a high of 15 year olds. Because they're the only ones doing it. It's a fascinating thing to think about, you know? Can I ask you just for a minute to talk about Ronnie spector, who was an important really important person in your life and you were an important person in hers? Yeah, yeah. Of course, you know, everybody had fallen in love with her voice and in that late 16th, early 70s period really became reacquainted with all that all of those oldies that were just 77 years earlier or whatever. Things are happening very quickly in those days. So become reacquainted with all of that pioneer stuff. And I fell in love with the whole grow group thing. What was she like in the studio? What was she like to be in that studio with that voice? Real nervous because, you know, it had been a while and she I mean, the thing about all the 50s and 60s artists that I've worked with. And I work with quite a few. It's always a joy because they're just better. You know, they're better because they had to be better. You know? There's no auto tune in those days. And it was not even that much editing. They did a little bit. But you basically had to sing a song from beginning to end and sing it in tune and sing the right melody, you know? You know what I mean? You had to be great. That was just the standard of all of those artists..

"On today's episode, Bruce hadn't talked to Van Zandt about the budding New Jersey rock and roll scene in the 60s, and what it was like recording with legendary R&B singers like Ronnie spector and darlene love. He also reminisces about first meeting Springsteen, who van zant says he saw go from a shy kid who's too timid to speak to one of the greatest entertainers of our time. This is broken ready. Water notes for the digital age. I'm Justin Mitchell. Here's Bruce headlam with Stevie van zand. Well, thank you. First of all so much for doing this. My pleasure. You are singer, songwriter, arranger, producer, award winning actor, a creator of and I didn't realize this. The two best channels on satellite radio, you also created an outlaw country, as well as underground garage. Yeah. Member of these street band. And now you're an author. You're the author of a new book unrequited infatuations. And there's a lot of requited infatuations in the book, and some unrequited. We're going to talk about them both, because it's a theme that runs through the book. And you call yourself a configuration. That so many times in your life, you seem to be in this position of having to say something to somebody that is so obviously in their self interest and they can't quite see it. Were you always that kind of guy? Were you always the guy that wasn't afraid to give advice? It's certainly I feel part of the obligation of being somebody's friend. You know, so it certainly starts there. But as you suggest, I have done that with people who are not friends. Yeah. And I didn't know this part of my brain existed and I talk about that in the book. I mean, I went through the 60s, not a political thought in my head. Now, can you imagine such a thing? You know, it was a few things going on in the 60s, you.

"Washington Post. Before we before we get to the second half of the book, though, and you were sort of anticipating my next question is when you left the band because you wrote that occasionally you need to be untethered. You wrote that once you did that, you were, quote, persona, totally non grata, that when you, when you left the band, despite not publicizing any, there was no bad blood, but you say you were seen as a traitor. Virtually by everybody did that surprise. How surprised by that were you and how difficult was that? Yeah, I wasn't thinking of the consequences. You know, when I did it, so they slowly appeared, you know? The month started to follow I realized people were treating me differently. And, you know, I was losing all my Friends. And the fans and friends all started to think of me as a trader for leaving the band at that time. And so there was no real encouragement. They didn't see me as a legitimate artist of my own, because I hadn't really revealed that I was one yet. So it was a lot of confusion about that. And negative sort of reaction, you know, not from Bruce said nice things about me on stage, you know and says something nice on the board to born the USA album cover. You know, he was very encouraging, actually, even though he was disappointed that I wasn't taking that trip into superstardom, you know. You know, it wasn't disappointment. And it was a big, you know, an awkward moment in our relationship. But everybody else took it much more seriously and much more negatively and that would remain so for a while. Right. You used a phrase. People didn't see you as a legitimate artist. And yet, after you left, after you left the band, you recorded a series of critically acclaimed albums in the 80s. And you rallied some of the biggest names in music to fight South African apartheid on the protest classic sun city. This was in 1985. But you never found maybe two year point. You never found a mass audience. How difficult was that for you? Well it kind of still is, you know? And hence the title of the book. You know, because, you know, I've had some amazing successes and I believe me. I am absolutely grateful about them. And I'm not whining and complaining about it. But again, I wanted to focus a little bit on that universal theme of everybody suffers some frustration and disappointment in their lives. You know, I think everybody does. And in my case, you know, my most personal solo work has never found a big audience, you know, to this day. So that's not the question. The question is not are you going to experience disappointment and frustration in your life? The question is, what do you do with that? What do you do when that happens? No. And so I wanted that theme to really carry the book, you know, because everything I've done has happened since I left the E street band. You know the 5 solo albums that The Sopranos lilyhammer busted Mandela out of jail, et cetera, et cetera, all of that happened afterwards. You know and, you know, as much as you can say, well, I wish I could have done both. I wish I could have stayed and done all those things. That's really not very realistic, you know, in the end. So after that massive disappointment and big mistake at the time, felt like a big mistake leaving you know, I would end up finding a way to move forward and get some things done. And I think that's hopefully useful to people and maybe even inspiring. We'll see. You know, let's talk about this. Let's talk about The Sopranos. Because you wrote about seeing David chase back in the late 90s, who thought you would be perfect for the role of cilia Dante on his new drama series, The Sopranos. How did that come about? Especially considering you'd never acted before. The minor problem. Yeah. Yeah, he saw me doing I was completely out of the business by then. Walking my dog, and they chose me to induct the rascals in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which happened to be the first time that ceremony was broadcast. You know, so destiny was definitely at work here. And David chase is flicking around with the remote. Stops on that channel by, you know, by accident, whatever. And I did like a little, I don't know, three, four minute comedy kind of comical induction. And he was looking for new faces for his was going to be his last TV show. He had been in TV for a long time. And this was it. He wanted to start making movies, so this was going to be his last TV show. And he wanted it to be different. He wanted new faces. He was going to break all the rules. And so he calls me out of the blue. So, you know, we want to be in my new TV show. And I was like, man, that's so nice, you know? But no, no thanks, you know. I'm not an actor. And he was like, oh, yes, you are, you know? Just, you know, come on down. So I went down and you know, he actually wanted to cast me as Tony Soprano, which was luckily cooler heads prevailed. You know, an HBO wouldn't let him do it. And so luckily, we got the right, we got the right Tony Soprano, with Jimmy gandolfini. But at a certain point, 'cause everything was happening so fast. I said to him, David, I got to tell you, I'm feeling a little guilty about taking an actor's job. You know, these guys work so hard. My wife's a real actor. I saw her go to school for years, acting classes. And, you know, off Broadway and off Broadway. I said, you know, it's not right for me to come in here and take an actor's job, you know? So he said, okay, I'll tell you what, then I will write you in a part because it doesn't exist. So you're not taking anybody's job, you know? And what do you want to do? And I said, well, I had a treatment about this cat Sylvia Dante, independent hitman, he worked in he had a club, like the old copacabana, you know, kind of lived in the past. Big bands and you know catskills comics and dancing girls and 5 families had all had their tables in the club, kind of like a mafia version of Casablanca, you know? So he went away back in day or two later and said, well, you know, that's cool, but we can't afford it. So we'll make it a strip club. And you'll run the strip club for the family, you know. And that became the by the bang and so I joined on that basis of not having been really written into the pilot with sort of a new character and I wrote, I wrote a biography of the character and saying that him and Tony were best friends and grew up together, not even thinking that I was 20 years older. You know, I'm still 25 forever in my mind. But you know and I shared it with the writers and David was kind of picking up on relationship between me and Jimmy gandolfini. When we bought it very quickly, you know, I think because we were both more comfortable being side men and in his case a character actor, you know? And I think we kind of bonded that way. And so slowly, along somewhere in that first season, my character became the underboss, you know, the console Yeti, which was an important role in the mafia family that actually didn't exist in the pilot. So it was kind of a vacuum that character ended up filling. And being the only guy and being the only guy who doesn't want to be the boss, you know, somebody that the boss can really trust, you know? And so it slowly it's only became the relationship that I had with Bruce in real life. And so that became very comfortable for me as an actor acting the first time. I knew exactly what those dynamics are all about. In one sentence, what do you want people to take away from your book? Well, I hope that people can find it useful, it's more than a book about a music guy. It's more than a book for musicians, I think. And I hope people take away the fact that life sometimes doesn't work out the way you plan, but that doesn't mean you should give up on it. You know, you gotta keep moving forward and seeing what you can do to just realize your potential in its world and try and find find your way, find a purpose, you know? And I think that's what in the end that's the story that gets told. Stevie Van Zandt, I have all these questions about teach rock and your little Stevie's underground garage and SiriusXM and the prequel for The Sopranos, but we are totally out of time. So I want to thank you very much for coming to Washington Post live and remind everyone the name of your memoir is unrequited infatuation. Stevie, so great to meet you. Thanks again for coming to Washington Post slide. You two Jonathan, my pleasure..

"Since the mid 1960s, from touring the world with Bruce Springsteen in the E street band to being Tony Soprano's right hand man and his work as an activist. Stevie van zant's life's journey has taken him to places many of us can only dream of, but it didn't come easily. The question is not are you going to experience disappointment and frustration in your life? The question is, what do you do with that? Stevie Van Zandt talks about it all as we discuss his new book unrequited infatuations a memoir. In this conversation, first recorded on September 28th for Washington Post live, van Sant takes us on that journey through such wonderful and unvarnished storytelling, you'll feel like you're sitting with him in a booth at hostel's diner. Stevie van zant, welcome to Washington Post live. Nice to be with each other. I'm a big fan of yours. And it's very nice to meet you and you know I think you tweeted at me tweeted at me once. And I was like, wait, Steven Vincent follows me on Twitter. So this is a thrill to meet you at least virtually. So let's talk about your book. Why did you decide that now was the time to release a memoir? Well, I think it was partly opportunity. I mean, the quarantine, you know, suggested that we were going to be home for a while. So I have new managers. I never had managers my whole life, and I just acquired some managers and they were like, why don't you write a book, you know? So I thought, you know, maybe it's the right time. You know, while I still remember like, you know, 20% of my life maybe. I better run better write it down now. Before it's all gone and I also happen to have the most the three most productive years of my life right before the quarantine. 2017, 1819, I put out two new albums sold fire and summer of sorcery and did two world tours with the disciples of soul. And ended up releasing like 6 album packages that was an amazing amazingly productive time. And I reconnected with my life's work with my music work, which I hadn't, I hadn't really done that in over 20 years. You know, I started acting and then Bruce put the band back together and before you know it 20 years went by. And I kind of abandoned my own works. So I was reconnecting to my to my music. I think really helped me have some closure for that part of my life. So what was the most important thing you wanted to share about your life? Well, it's not so much my life as much as the things I've observed and the things I've seen and the history that I lived with. I only missed the first decade of rock and roll, you know? I only missed the 50s. So I was a kid in a 60s watching it all happen. And it was such an extraordinary time. I refer to it as a renaissance period and I mean that I don't believe that type of ball. I'm feeling the most amazing and greatest art being made is also the most commercial. You know, you have yourself a renaissance. And growing up that time, I wanted to I wanted to share that share that 60s experience with people who missed it. And right into the 70s, which was just a glorious time to be alive. And we were really the luckiest generation. And I'm the luckiest of the luckiest generation. Well, I want to jump, I'm going to jump into the 60s and rock and roll, because in the book. You wrote about the process of trading in your devotion to the baptist, the baptist religion for an obsession with rock and roll and more specifically groups like The Beatles and Rolling Stones influenced you. Explain how there were many fans around back then Jonathan. I know it sounds it sounds weird to say that, but you know, we had a lot of individual stars, you know, coming from the 50s, you know, the bodega leads and chuck berries. And we had a lot of doo wop groups, harmony groups. But they weren't that many bands. And so I wasn't that interested in show business. I wasn't that interested in the individual so much. You know, I was buying a few singles and enjoying the records. But I never really had a connection to any of the artists. Until The Beatles came and suddenly, you know, he was a band. And they were followed by 15 more terrific bands. We call it the British invasion. And that communicated something different to me. And I think to all of us. Four or 5 guys singing and playing was unusual. I mean, if you went to your high school dance, you saw an instrumental group. You know, there was nobody singing. And you know, and basically the communication of friendship and family and community was really the communication that turned me on. And I wanted that as a as a lifestyle, more that more than the show business aspects of it. But I always combined The Beatles and stones because The Beatles were just too perfect. They were a revelation of this whole new idea of being in a band. But they were so good. We only caught them halfway through the career. You know, they were already fantastic. And then The Rolling Stones came four months later, and they made it look easier than it was and you know, they kind of wore what they felt like, you know, kind of like the first punk band. And so how I like to refer to it as The Beatles introduced a brand new world to us and The Rolling Stones invited us in. Oh, that's terrific. You know, Stevie, I don't know if you heard the rustling after I asked that last question. Your book fell out of my lap. Because I want to ask you about something that you wrote. You just talked about The Beatles, and you talked about Rolling Stones. But in your book, you also write about Little Richard and you write Little Richard Little Richard was the embodiment and archetype of the philosophy of rock and roll freedom. My man, his flamboyant, multi sexual androgyny said, you can be whoever you want to be. He turned rock into an art form that only not only tolerated reinvention but demanded it. And here's the line that jumped out at me. He opened his.

I didn't know about. Because i was innocent in those days but there are a lot of a lot of parties going on and i said wiser so tired when they show up for work the next because we were there for so long we bonded like it was our graduating class.

Think they gave him a new jaguar just to show up and it was sitting there for many again eventually. Drove it back in california. I guess whether like they kept trying to make him happy and he was not happy league entire time.

I mean she starts life there but People that we know that our navy kids or air force kitchen move around a lot and she did that. We touched on earlier. She finds herself. They're in school. Chris and her me as their forming a band and other things are swirling in the world of cbgb's and everything else punk rock and new york city. He is wooing her in wooing her all suitors as he described in our interview with chris france and wins her heart and her hand and now they've been married coming up on forty four years of marriage One of the great rock and roll couples. And chris was on with us and he told us that tina's getting ready to write her book. She may even have it written but he did not deal that. I think she's got coast to be public. Because i think it's supposed to be out. In twenty twenty one isn't hers bestsellers mazing couple bestsellers talking about their relationship and banned from two different perspectives. It's fantastic absolutely fantastic. Her family's a very creative family in general that both parents even though he was a structured military man was very supportive of the arts. And you have to look her brother. Yawn designed the Salvador dali Museum he's the architect to design that. So how that's very encouraging. Chris said that his parents to are also navy right. So it's something that we're learning about. Life is military adjacent life. And it's nice to see that like we talked about before and i you know. She goes into hooks up with his guys at rhode island school of design. Which you know. They all speak highly of their experience there and talking heads compass point all stars. Tom tom club. We talked about them planning on this podcast recently. And i'm not sure it would've gone her on here to find out i if she ever met steven van zandt. I'm gonna guess yes. I would love to know and i know you reached out to chris Before we recorded today and if we find out anything or we'll add in an update online somewhere sometime. And that's what we do do really. I'm going to guess that they've shared a stage of the festival. And i'm going to guess that they have met at events and i'm trying to think because they've all been involved in in some form of activism over the decades as well so their paths could have crossed that way to to impressive pedigrees in two great musicians who have had a huge impact on the direction of rock and roll differently post-punk before there was post punk new wave before there was new wave. That's the talking heads talking. Heads east street band both in the rock and roll hall of fame both bands these members these birthday twins impact that that both bands are impacted enter different with different people involved and therefore the connection becomes a hall of fame connection something that we're starting to see too. Is we start talking. More and more about different sets of birthday twins. Absolutely and by the way chris and tina together since mid seventy s period married since seventy seven two sons. And if you follow chris on facebook you can see their view of the world daily you almost. He just recently posted this picture that he does from their deck on on the pond. They live near and he did it for a whole year. And he didn't do every day when he took all the ones that he did post over the ear and turned it into a big file of all pictures of his day there in connecticut. And we're happy to know. We look forward to her book. Maybe on these days silvio dante will write his book time does he have time to write a book at a time.

I'm gonna get kicked out by her. And he's going fire ant. Because i might answering so all of a sudden. Lucy got up from the table and she walked up to the front of the bleachers. And i was sitting in the far back trying to hide and she just looked up at me and she said hi. Billy i heard you were coming at that moment on. It was still a closed set with one exception me. I got to sit alone in that sound stage and watch the rehearsal all week. Long and man was at a masterclass really was fantastic. You were also in the movie caps. And i understand when you were younger. You would actually drive faster. House sean penn and tom cruise yes i did. There's one block in hollywood in beverley else that Every every other every house was somebody. Big jimmy stewart jack benny agnes moorehead rosemary clooney and lucy. Right on the corner. Next jimmy stewart. So i i got out here. That was the only knowledge. I add up celebrity homes so anytime somebody came to visit. They'd get my car. And i take him to the one block. I knew and the whole reason. I would go. There is because i wanted to meet lucy. So i would clark outside hope like an idiot hoping she was going to walk out the front door which otherwise you would and i get the meter. So sean new. Sean penn and tom cruise or in the movie taps. With me and sean. I lived out here. But tom was flying out to to start his career out here. So sean and picked him up at the airport. And i went straight to lucy's house sean. Along with he thought it was hilarious. That i was stupid. That i wanted to park outside lucy's house and didn't know what was going on and the three of us are outside at the curb and so at some point. If felicia looked out her window she would've seen sean. And i'm crews me sitting at the curb like more on stalking her. That's what we been. And you actually have another incident when you went with jane and you you knocked on the door and the housekeeper said first time i came out to l. a. was the film A couple of pickup scenes jaws. To and i went straight from the airport to lucy's house and i parked the old. Jane was whipped me and we pulled up to the house and i started out of the car. She's what are you doing. I so i have to meter so i got out of the car hit. She hid under the dashboard. And i got out of the car. And i woke up a brick walkway and not lead to learn houseboy. Answer the door. I said the. Billy van zandt Lucille ball and he said she's not home and slam the door. My face like a back in the car drove away ten years later after i had done that life with lucy. A little bit. I i was invited to lucy's house. We were sitting around chatting and like all now comfortable with my my friends. I'll asking bunch of questions. So i said. Did you ever meet charlie chaplin. I said you can see his influence in your work. But i've never seen a picture of the two of you together. And she said no. But i'll tell you a funny story at nineteen seventy-six my husband. Gary and i are in switzerland. And i found out where we live so we drove to his house. But gary get out of the car. He hid under the dashboard. I got out. And i walked up to the front door and i knocked on the door and i said lucille. Ball's here to see charlie chaplin. They said he's not home. Slammed the door in my face. I never told her my part of that story. The right prior to that we were talking about how the house on the corner and accessible on the street. And i and somebody said something about what about you know weirdo fans and all this sort of thing she said oh no we press one button and bars come down over the windows over perfectly safe. I thought if i tell them my story. I'm going to throw me out so i didn't say anything but we had the panico lucy me. What do you think was the best thing that you probably learned from her as performer. Or even as a creator to read. Couple things i would say one. Is the you work with your house and you re hurt and rehearse rehearse with your prophet when when it comes time to either on stage in front of an audience or camera to be in front of the camera It everything can look spontaneous when you've actually meticulously worked out exactly what to do with your upset with one I also learned. You have to believe what you're doing. That's the whole secret to her comedy Which she learned from buster keaton at mgm and And i've tried to follow to because the rare thing with her. Which i think makes her so special is she could do most outrageous things and if anybody else did you would say that stupid. It's cartoon work too much but she was so believable and everything that she bid that i it was just. It was just really special. And so i've tried to constantly push for directing. Are you really have to focus to believe that character is doing whatever it is. they're doing. Oh you can't focus on us on that and you said some of your who are actually kind of written like like lucy episode and the very first I started writing plays because my auditions is an active were few and far between. I had some good movie credits for the auditions were just spaced out so much. So a i was on the set of Star trek the first star trek movie. And i was borne out of my mind because i was playedas alien with a big head and contact lenses and there was so much secrecy about that first film that they didn't allow me out of my dressing room for lunch. You know. I guess technically they no break to do Young stupid so. I will stay in for lunch all the time and so i told jane said bring bring my smith corona typewriter and we wrote ourselves a play to act in. So i thought you know. If if the work's not coming to me i'm going to create it. So i started writing plays and the ferry. Probably the first five plays we did. We've done when he finds are so far. The first five plays were all farces and they had a somewhat described him as sort of finley disguise. Lucy episodes you know now. I wrote them. I didn't matter right. I was an actor so they i wrote this. It was like okay. I wanna fall out of a window to list a bunch of funny things i wanted to do and then i figured out a plot to get me to do all these stupid things and so after probably after about five plays ice kinda learned how to write so those plays are actually done all over the world and i'm very grateful for them but A from a writing standpoint sometimes a little embarrassed that some of the things that actually gotten to print. I wanna actually you'd off some of the titles just in case. Some people might be familiar with them. I think is love sex in the irs. That's probably.
