Ali said, "You're going to conduct the
symphony." I think we had like 35
musicians. You know, it was it was a
different time. I really didn't take it
that seriously. I looked at it as a
great opportunity. Like like they were
saying, we were just having a good time.
And there were no errors at all. Really
not. Wow. Ali said, "Do it." And well,
you see, the thing was that I really
didn't know what I was doing. And when
you haven't a clue what you're doing,
you just get up there and just do
whatever happens. And
if I could take a minute to be
technical,
>> Yes. I was not born a natural conductor.
You know, some people get on a bike and
they're just off. And some people, they
just never get the balance. I was not
born as a natural conductor. So, just to
get technical a little bit, when a
conductor conducts, it's almost like the
beat is like when he's banging on the
table. So, it's like one, two, three.
So, it almost sounds like
>> the beat is on the way up. It almost
looks like that. But what comes
naturally to a lot of people, and to me,
then the beat starts when you're going
down. So, it's like one instead of one.
So, it's just one, two, three. That's
wrong. It should be one, two, three.
That's right.
>> So, it's a whole kind of thing, right?
So, I get up there in front of
30 musicians, and they're all looking at
me. That Musicians always do that. Who's
this conductor? Who does he think he is?
You know,
And I start going one, and they're doing
something totally different than it's in
my mind. So, the whole thing was a
disaster. It
We pulled it off one way or the other,
but it was it was fun. It
>> It was a learning curve.
