I'm saying that because those people will forget about this.

No, I lived in London at that time, and everybody loved that, and I , so I thought I wanna do that in Paris, and then he said, well , you can't  afford to actually rent a theater, or take a crew, so you can take some people that you know, we'll hire some cheapest cameramen.

Keep this, there's no money to go there and do a show?

No, no, so we got card table.
