It happened in Vegas. Word's will never fully describe it. Find the tape. This one won't stay in Vegas.
[Audio clip of Dave speaking: "First time I heard that song, I was playing it and I thought, 'This is a bad motherfucker right here.' Tastes a little bit funny, but that's okay, something's wrong with it. I hope that it eventually affects you in a positive way at some stage."]
