| 1:04.1 | We are glad you're here with us for show 931 for January 19th, 2026. |

| 2:16.9 | 1 a.m. This old tired body, I'm driving home. I mean, while I'm playing, I'm having a great time. Everybody, there's having a great time. Everybody's dancing and singing and, um, obviously the crowd's getting into it. But, but after the letdown, after 1 a.m., and I'm packing up my gear and stuff, I'm like, I'm tired. |
