THE TITLE, "700 SUNDAYS."
TELL PEOPLE WHAT THAT REFERS TO.
>> WELL, MY FATHER HAD TWO JOBS.
ALL OF OUR LIVES.
THE ONLY DAY OFF HE HAD WAS
SUNDAY.
HE DIED WHEN I WAS A KID.
SO I FIGURED OUT THAT I HAD
ROUGHLY 700 OF THEM WITH HIM TO
SORT OF GET MY LIFE MOVING
FORWARD.
NOW, THIS IS A COMEDY SHOW.
AND IT'S REALLY FUNNY, BUT HE
WAS AN AMAZING GUY AND GAVE ME A
GREAT PUSH IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION.
THE SHOW IS ABOUT OUR
RELATIONSHIP.
>> Dave: VERY SWEET AND A
WONDERFUL TRIBUTE TO YOUR FATHER
AND THE RELATIONSHIP THE TWO OF
YOU HAD.
YAISMT, BECAUSE HE SENT ME INTO
SUCH GREAT THINGS IN MY LIFE,
THE JAZZ WORLD BECAUSE HE WAS A
PROMOTEOR, A CONCERT PROMOTEOR.
