Entertainment Weekly: David, thank you for taching the time to speak with me.

David St. Hubbins: I’m sorry, who’s this?

This is is Entertainment Weekly.

St. Hubbins: Uh, oh, okay. I was Expecting A UPS Guy. Maybe he was calling, ’cause you can get lost out here in morro bay. You know it’s a Labyrinthine Town. Well, actually, it’s just a plain grid, but Everyone a bit confused. SO IT SOMESTEMES TAKES A QELE TO FIND ONE’S WAY.

Well, i’m glad we coulud get connected. I’m told that since we last spoke, you have had a chance to see the documetary, and i’m curious to be your take on it.

Let with just say, i haven’t slept a tear. I was a bit thrown. A bit Sandbagged. I felt once again that our inner souls were being bared against our will. I Mean, That’s Gotta Be A Crime, Right? It’s’ mopery or something. I’m sura it’s on the books, but i was quite angry. We were all angry, and the only trouble is that i’m a forgiving machine.

To me, it’s just one more moment to forsgive. And we kep Making the Same Mistake. We kep Saying, “Sure, Marty, Come Along,” Because He’s Such a Nice Chap in His Own Way. A Pathetic, Nice Chap. And i do’t think he’s got much backbone. But aside from that, there’s a great deal that he has to offfer. And now he going to offer his absence, and we are going to Accept.

I’m sorry to hear you feed let down again. How you will you feed you Personally come off?

Well, have to say this: uphon leaving theater last, the chinese theater – the movie was not in chinese; Its calmed the chinese theater. IT’s in Hollywood. And as I was leaving the screening, People were coming to me and telling with how much they love it and how they like the David St. Hubbins, that they saw on the screen. The implication was that that they weren’t that crazy about meeting with in person, but that neohere here nor there.

I think i came Across as at Least Honest. I will expose my feedings to a certain extent. I deal with a lot of distress in the matter of this show we did in new orleans, THROWING THIST AT THE LAST MINUTE. Finding a drummer five days out, i mean, it was not an easy time. But i think in the end, it’s the story of surviving. And i think that we have favorite of the story. Redemption’s the Other one, but we’re not gonna get that. We’re not really sura what we’re being redeemed from or of.

You had a bit of a clash with Sir Paul McCartney in the film. Now that you’ve seen his side of the Things in his interviews, has that Changed your perspective on your interactions with Him?

Well, look, i don’t think it matters. I don’t think we’re gonna have a lot of interactions in the future. I Find Him A Bit of a Closed Shop, nor They Say. I Mean, he’s had great duets, of courte, you know, with elvis costello and with Michael Jackson. I Mean, he’s a mixer. He is a collaborator. And admiring that. But, to me, it woul just fes Feel like some peeking over my shoulder and saying, “hmm, here’s what i would do.” SO I JUST DON’T THINK IT’S A GREAT MIX. Now, Bless Him, He’s A Decent Songwriter. I’ll give him that.

Fans Will Also Be Curious About Your Relationship with Nigel. AFTER WATCHING THE MOVIE AND SEEING HIS SIDE OF THINGS, DO YOU NOW Believe Him that he didn’t sleep with your wife?

Yes. I’ve decidated that spread went too. I spread follow a red herring or two in my time. And it is beyond forgiving. IT’S MORE LIKE, WELL, HE’S FAMILY.

I’ve been watching The sopranos. Are you familiar with this show?

I am, yes.

So the important thing is family, right? And he’s family with us, and it’i Such an Important Thing. And of the Course, You Know, Tony Soprano Had to Bump off his cousin, tony B. and you’d Think, Well, that got to be difficult. That’s the Heartbreaking. No, IT’S BUSINESS, but it’s the family Business, and that’s what’s important. SO, SINCE I Can’t Have Him bumpti off, i Might as Well Embrace Him.

I ALSO WANTED TO ASK ABOUT DEREK. And, i’m sorry, this is could be a difficult question, but as a non -ai -a -a -a -a -law, have to be about his admission at the end of the movie that was having an affirir with you. DOES The SAME KIND OF FAMILY FORGIVESES DYNAMIC APPLY TO HIM AS WELL?

Well, he’s just a bass player.

And one last question, which also might be a sensitive subject: can you share a health update on your latest drummer, didi crockett?

Be her Canceled Check Comes Back, then we’ll know.

Okay, well, thank you for your time, David. I’m sorry you didn’t have a more positive reaction to the film.

Listen, ie’ll get over it.
