-I saw a picture of you rollerblading from years back.
-[ Laughing ] Did you? -Yeah.
And were you -- Was that for a thing,
or did you used to do it all the time?
-Well, everyone did it.
-I never did it. -Ever?
-What are you talking about? -What, were you a scooter man?
Maybe I have a picture of you rollerblading.
-What´s it like to do it?
[ Both laugh ]
-No, I did a thing here once
a million years ago in a decade called the ´90s.
Right?
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Any Urkel fans out there?
-[ Laughs ]
I was in New York City,
one of the first times I lived in New York City,
and I was staying with some friends down in the East village
back in the ´90s when it was still a little crazy down there.
-Yeah.
-And the play that I was working on
had rehearsals and performances on, like, 70th and Broadway.
And this was in the days before unlimited ride subway cards,
so I couldn´t afford to take the subway every day,
which was like $1.50 each way.
Like, that´s out of the budget. -Yeah, no.
-So, the solution was to rollerblade
from 12th and A to 70th and Broadway
twice a day, every day
for a month. -Wow!
I mean, is that hard on --
-Oh, it´s hard on everything.
-Right? I mean, that´s crazy.
-Including like -- And this is, you know -- just idiot.
Didn´t wear a helmet, didn´t wear elbow pads, anything.
I had a leather jacket that I was thinking,
"Oh, this will help when I get run over by a bus."
-[ Laughs ] -"I´m sure this --
It´ll keep my organs contained, at least."
-Yeah, exactly.
-Flying down 9th Avenue.
I´m like, "It´s downhill, right, if you go uptown to downtown?"
-Do you go fast? -I did, yeah.
And I didn´t crash ever, which is amazing, but --
-How do you stop in those things?
-Grab onto a bus.
[ Laughter ]
-You just hug the bus? Just get in there.
Your film, "Baby Driver,"
congratulations on that film, by the way.
-Thank you! -Holy mackerel.
[ Cheers and applause ] [ Pops lips ]
Knocked it out of the park with that one.
-It was a home run. -That was great.
"Baby Driver." And it´s kind of like --
Some people call it, like, an action musical.
-Some people have. I´ve called it that.
-That´s who it was.
-Yeah, it was me. -Yeah, it was you.
-It´s a great -- You know, we shot it in Atlanta.
-Oh, I love Atlanta. -We got to --
There´s a couple of little cameos in the movie
for sharp-eyed viewers of Atlanta musicians.
Big Boi from OutKast.
Killer Mike from Run the Jewels.
-We love Killer Mike.
-So a lot of cool, like, Atlanta flavor in there.
-Did you get to see any shows while you were down in Atlanta?
-I did, in fact, which was also really cool.
I got to see -- I got to see three shows.
This will tell you the kind of breadth
of my musical taste, so... -Okay.
-Number one? -Uh-huh?
-Justin Bieber. [ Cheers and applause ]
-Really? -Out of the box.
-Really? -Sure.
-I don´t see you as a Belieber.
-They say, "Zig," I say, "Zag."
-Oh, I got you, I got you.
They say, "Hither," you say... -Jan.
-"...thither." Oh, yeah. Whatever. "Jan."
-Hither was another one of the Crimson --
-Yeah, oh, Hither Crimson --
Yeah, I loved -- I had a crush on her, yeah.
Seth, do you believe that he likes Justin Bieber?
-I can´t believe it, man, but now that I´m hearing it,
I think it´s cool.
-All right. -I don´t "beliebe" it.
[ Laughter ]
-It had to happen. -Had to happen.
Wait. But how was the concert?
-It was great.
And it was, like, I went with some friends,
and I was like, "I don´t know, he´s got a big album out,
has a couple cool songs. Like, why not?"
I met him once doing a digital short on "SNL" or something.
-Yeah, he was always great when he was on our show.
-Here´s what I wanted to hear.
I wanted to hear 15,000 teenage kids lose their minds.
Mission accomplished.
-Yeah, yeah. It happened. -It was amazing.
-Really? All right, so you saw Bieber.
-So the next show I went to, then,
don the other end of the spectrum,
Beyoncé in the Georgia Dome.
[ Cheers and applause ]
The third show I saw
was the very last performance that Prince ever gave.
[ Audience ohs ]
-Really? Where?
-90 minutes at the Fox Theater in Atlanta.
Jam-packed house.
90 minutes, beginning to end. Never stopped playing.
It was amazing. -He´s unbelievable.
-Like, a religious experience to the point where
when I was parking my car, running late,
there was a lady in front of me who had parked her car,
and we were both waiting to pay the guy.
And she pays the guy
and goes running into the thing and stops
like she clearly forgot something.
Ran back to her car
and got a tambourine.
[ Laughter ]
She got her little tambourine with the Prince thing on it
and ran back in.
She had to bring her tambourine.
-You got to bring that tambo, man.
You got to bring the tambo to Prince.
-She sat about five rows ahead of me,
and the tambourine got worked out.
-Yes!
[ Cheers and applause ]
