years is that so well this is mrs grace slick see there's no applause for that nice to see you grace thank you i've liked you i don't know ever since you first started out with the len and sisters and i really just you know i sat on the desk while you were going to stand up and have a fight here or do you want to oh no no those are the other chicks are they coming out the other chicks yeah women's referring to my lady guests two ladies from the yeah but i don't know their names ladies women's liberation movement yeah are they coming out are you here to make trouble no i just want to know what they're doing they're guests here they're going to be here tonight and i thought the subject of hugh hefner and rallo and those ladies would all intertwine and make a very interesting program we thought you might like to sit here and take part in it well grace you want to talk would you please just i'll listen you did not raise your hand and you cannot leave your seat unless you've raised you have to go to the bathroom did you get away with that at finch college what saying do i have to go to the bathroom were you a cheerleader at field no or anything like that grace went to finch college hey listen somebody from your uh office or whatever called this morning said listen he could add libid you know we could do that but no he'd really like to have some facts yeah so he gave him some facts and they said trisha went to finch is that true tricia i didn't know that you know trish trish you and trisha nixon went to yes somebody said she went to finch oh i know i'm sorry you were stating that i must have really been well you're not the same age no i'm 10 years older than she is anyway yeah but people people find it a little incongruous that a lady who is into something like the rock scene would be a a graduate of a finishing school if that's what you're called a diving board for that sort of thing really you mean it's required to be the lead singer in a group like this to go to a finishing school but they drive you to it how do you mean that were you not happy there did you grouse no actually i liked it the reason why i went there is uh to see new york i didn't pick it because of a college it just uh it was somebody said i'm going to fench oh yeah that's in new york fine i'll go there could you sit closer to the microphone so that the home audience has a chance of hearing you certainly but don't lower your voice when you do it because then you defeat the purpose well see i'm so used to the volume that we sing at then when i hear my own voice like this it's echoes back rings in my ears i'm afraid to speak out really let loose one's on here and see what happens [Music] that's the sound folks it's so high that only a musically educated dog can hear it where's jack he's got that great no don't bring it out does jack cassidy ever laugh you just heard him laugh i could hear him laugh all the way out here and he's in the ground he's so when he's plays the bass and he's so serious when he plays that it looks like he's working at some monumental problems my father wanted to know if he was a [ __ ] because no he he does this thing when he plays bass he has really specific things like his eyebrows go in time to the music yeah and his mouth hangs open you know my father was really serious he said i don't mean to be you know funny or anything but is a guy a [ __ ] yeah but he's not really a [ __ ] he just looks like that when he plays bass otherwise he's very bright do you say [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] yeah is it [ __ ] yeah is jack a [ __ ] he may be i can't sit here and let anyone be called a [ __ ] but a cretan he may very well be that was a problem yeah run out to your dictionaries folks and see which of us is right i'll bet on [ __ ] i don't
