-I tell people we have sub-genres of New Orleans music. Like, Mr. Toussaint was a king of R&B, through all his music, and you have the Neville Brothers with their style of funk, and then you have The Meters, which also, a distinguished style of funk, different than the Neville Brothers. So the way -- when you come to New Orleans, you can hear a brass band without even looking at them and say, "They're from Uptown" or, "They're from the Ninth Ward" just by the rhythms that we play. So the music is very inspiring to everybody. And we try to just keep it going. You know, like Cyril and Mr. Toussaint made "Rest in Peace," Dr. John, everybody -- They all said, "Take what we did, but do your own thing." We trying to bring it all over the world in hopes of inspiring people to come to New Orleans to discover other bands that may not have the touring ability to go and spread their music, so hopefully we intrigue peoples' mind to go discover other people that only play in New Orleans. -I know you can talk for hours about this. But what does this guy sitting next to you mean? -Well, you know, when I met him when I was a kid, he invited me into his family, and I basically stayed at his house. I went to school from his house. I caught the bus to his house after school. And then when I was 13 years old, he invited me on a summer tour with his brothers. You know, without him and his brothers, and the contribution to New Orleans music, I don't think I would be here doing. You wouldn't hear the sounds that we heard tonight performing on "ACL," and his whole family and himself, it means so much to New Orleans. and I can't thank him enough. I owe everything that I know. I steal his vocal mind when I pull it off. And he's like a father to me. His son, Myron Neville, is like a brother. And I literally grew up underneath Cyril Neville and learned a lot from him and still learn a lot. I'll call him, ask him questions. He'll call me and hit me to some things. And he's like my pops, so... I love him to death. -Well, I mean, I say "Neph" for "nephew," but he's more like a son. It's very, very special for me. You know, for me...
Speaking indistinctly
Don't get no better. - Don't have to try to drive me crazy Oh, yeah I need someone to come and save me You're about to drive me crazy - Crazy - I need someone to come to save me You got it, I want it You call, I'm comin' You like it, I try it You want it, I got it You say it, I'll believe it I need it Your love makes me do the craziest thing
