Wonderful. Funny. All drummers are funny, anyway. My first wife, Pearl Bailey, said, Drummers are funny," and my wife now says, "You guys are all comedians. " We learn that. Getting back to that theater, that's the one thing that I'm sorry to say went out of style, if that's the right word to use - the theaters, RKO houses, when you'd go in and hear a great band, and the likes of Bill Bailey on tap-dancing, Teddy Hale, the Nicholas Brothers, the Berry Brothers, all that. If that was going on today, the kids would say wow, wow. The ballrooms were open, swing. All that television knocked all that out. I'm not saying that television is bad, but that upbringing of living on the stage and playing with all those greats, it really stays with you, because you learn to be a comedian. You learn to tell jokes. You learn how to be an m.c. You learn how to tap dance. You learn how to do the whole thing. That was a golden era, really, in a way. There's a lot of great things happening today, but the barometer is, if you go to a lot of colleges and ask the kids - like they ask Clark Terry, "How was it like, playing with Duke Ellington's band? " and "How was it like to play with Count Basie's band? ", and you'd have a pow-wow session and tell them, they'd all say, "We were born 40 years too late. " "How was it to play with Dizzy Gillespie? Bird? " There again, when you have that kind of teachers - those kind of mentors - all you have to do is pay attention, and it rubs off, because that's the history of American music, right there.
