GS: So you weren't expecting any similarities between the gaming community and the people who normally come out to your shows?
OO: When I first came in to do a stage test on Thursday, there were seats everywhere, and I'm thinking, "This ain't going to be a sit-down audience, is it?" And before I went on stage, the band before me [The Artists Formally Known as Level 80 Elite Tauren Chieftain] went on there, and it sounded like they revved up the audience. So I thought, I'll have a good time. That's why I came here, to have a good time. Sometimes they're up, sometimes they're down. I had a great time tonight.
That little kid from Japan, -a. He's nine years of age, and he played "Crazy Train" like we play it on the record.
GS: So, let's see, you don't have any experience with games yourself?
OO: Not really. I used to play them in bars. It's been a long time. I don't drink. I haven't drunk in a long time. [Indiscernible] space game.
GS: Space Invaders?
OO: Yeah, I mean, I've got to get into it. My son is [indiscernible]..."Yeah, dad, OK OK OK." He's in another world.
GS: Do you think that's a bad thing?
OO: You know what? The bad thing about it...I don't know what the f*** I'm doing with them. I can't make a comment without knowing what the f*** I'm talking about. I mean, it's a world that...I'm just lazy. I don't want to take the time to learn how to use a cell phone or a [indiscernible]. It's just my own fault. I mean, I'm dyslexic, I've got attention deficit disorder, so if I don't understand it within the first five minutes, I don't use it again.
GS: Yeah, it's kind of interesting because people have begun using games for teaching different ways to learn.
OO: I've got to do it. I was talking to a friend of mine, Elton John, and he says to me, "Do you have a cell phone?" And I says, "No." And he goes, "[indiscernible]." And my kids are talking to me [indiscernible] have any brains. And my wife has got one of them iPhones. It's unbelievable. [Indiscernible] There was some music playing on the radio, and I thought, "[indiscernible]," and she goes, "Well, I'll tell you," and presses the iPhone, puts it up to the music, and she says, "Yeah, it's this." It could tell what was playing.
GS: Oh, right. I've actually got that on my phone as well. Well, I'm getting the signal from your man here. Is there anything else you want to say to our readers?
OO: I don't know. I feel like a dummy sitting here. I don't know what the f*** I'm talking about. I'm just trying to fill the time here. When it comes to the computer, I am so ...did anyone ever tell you, you look a bit like Steve Martin?
GS: Well, no actually.
OO: Well, you don't!
GS: OK, thanks!
