“I have been coming right here since 2000, and I at all times thought simply the spotlight of coming right here was like, DJing a celebration or my band performing, by no means, I believed, we might be on this sorta context, you understand? We’re having fun with it,” he stated.
“Sly Lives!” will premiere Thursday, February 13 on Hulu.
