Forgot about that bowtie. Wondered what the heck was hap'nin'.
This one goes out to Mike Tyson and Saddam Hussein. (Before launching into One Bad Stud.)
(Jan '98, Downtown Street Party: The band, forced to go on stage, plays some blues standards because Phil is nowhere to be found. They call this one "Waitin' for Phil," and midway through the song, Phil jumps past a security guard and goes on stage from the crowd.) He sings to the blues beat:
(very roughly paraphrased)
My car's double-parked
Out on the street.
Sorry, I'm late
But I got stuck in traffic
And can't find a place to park.
The engine's still runnin'
I gotta go move it
I'll be right back . . .
(he leaves and comes back about 5 minutes later)
This one goes out to Marvin Gaye, whose father shot him., Michelob Street Scene, San Diego, 1984.
When singing "love is my Business", Phil states, "This goes out to the stockmarket, it does not go out to us!"
Also, when singing "It's All Your Fault", Phil introduces it by saying "my girl done left me." and sometimes, "My good gal has done throw'd me down."
