Marlene, if you're gonna
send us out on tour, we're gonna need
more than $5 a day. How come we can't get paid
after each gig? Because you boys will spend
everything you make. The club sends the checks
to me, so as I can bank them. I just want to see
my own checks, that's all. You don't see, Ray.

own and see how well you do?
