Okay so a little while ago in San Francisco I could just speak at the huge music festival

outside lands with the Ear Hustle crew. We talk about storytelling on stage a bunch

of amazing listeners come out and they talk good. Awesome actually.

But then our part's over and it's still fairly early in the day so we wander.

And security is tight tight tight tight tight you're not allowed here or there over

there but we realize we've got the holy grail we're wearing artist's past wristband.

So tinted to the leaf I wander up to the big looking bouncer guy in front of the velvet

rope area. Can I help you? So I hold up my arm for his scanning machine have expecting

a beat down and his light turns green. This giant steps aside waves us through backstage

area access. We've got the good stuff. The bruise on tap. Chef prepared me over champagne

on ice baby. I see some smartly dressed people on a platform of cool kids.

And over there I try to join them but another security guard stops me. I hold up my arm again

to his machine the light goes green. He steps aside I stroll over to the special platform

like I'm supposed to be there. How you doing? I'm going to start thinking they've got

them big names coming out on stage little Wayne Anderson Park Paul Simon Paul Simon is

in one of these trailers and I'm thinking if Paul gets to know me we'd be great friends

here now maybe we could jam together late night. Paul and me me and Paul so I head off to

the trailer area. Two big bouncer's this time no worries I show them my all access artist

past they take out the machine the light turns red and so do their eyes and as I'm backing

up I wonder what if it worked what if I had the special access the golden ticket the backstage

past what if what if well today on snap judgment we're not going to just get you inside the

trailer we're not just going to ride inside the limousine no friends get ready because today
