He compliments B.B. again when asked about organizing the tour: "We just got the chance to have B.B. play with us so now we can learn from him. He comes from a generation of maybe six people of the order of B.B., and some of them are not around any more. I consider myself an apprentice around him. To actually have him on the road is an amazing thing." After the press conference, security attempt to quickly take the band back to their hotel. However, the members of the band and B.B. King talk to fans outside. Upon seeing the commotion, a local shopkeeper remarks, "You'd think it was 'The Beatles'".
