>> Stephen: WE'RE HERE WITH RUSSELL CROWE!
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) RUSSELL, SO NICE TO HAVE YOU
HERE, RUSSELL.
WE'RE RECORDING THIS ON THURSDAY NIGHT FOR THURSDAY NIGHT, BUT
LAST NIGHT WE HAD YOUR CO-STAR NAOMI WATTS WHO PLAYS GRETCHEN
CARLSON, WE RECORDED HER LAST NIGHT FOR TOMORROW NIGHT.
ARE WE CAUGHT UP ON HOW WE DO THIS?
>> THIS IS TRUTH IN MEDIA, LETTING YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT'S
GOING ON IN CASE YOU FEEL A LITTLE PERTURBED.
>> Stephen: THE REASON I EXPLAIN THAT IS YOU HAVE A LONG
HISTORY WITH HER.
>> I DO.
WE TID A TV SHOW TOGETHER BACK WHEN WE WERE LITERALLY KIDS,
CALLED BRIDES OF CHRIST, ABOUT THE CATHOLIC CHURCH.
OH, LOOK AT THAT...
>> Stephen: YES.
AND SHE SAYS WHEN SHE MOVED TO L.A. YOU USED TO CRASH AT HER
PLACE SOMETIMES.
>> I SLEPT ON HER COUCH A NUMBER OF TIMES.
>> HE STAYED WITH ME WHEN HE FIRST CAME TO L.A. WHEN
AUDITIONING.
>> Stephen: HE CRASHED ON YOUR COUCH?
>> YEAH.
HE OWES ME MONEY, ACTUALLY.
>> Stephen: HE'S ON TOMORROW.
CAN YOU TELL HIM?
>> Stephen: YEAH, I'LL TELL HIM.
HOW MUCH IS IT?
>> I FEEL LIKE JUST PUT SOME MONEY IN THE POT, LIKE $25 OR
SOMETHING FOR SOME GROCERIES.
>> Stephen: SURE, I'LL GET IT FROM HIM.
DO YOU HAVE YOUR WALLET ON YOU?
>> WELL, SHE CAME TO MY HOTEL ROOM LAST NIGHT AND DRANK
COPIOUS BOXES OF VERY EXPENSIVE RED, I THINK I'VE GOT IT
COVERED.
( APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: OKAY, GOOD.
I FOUND OUT SHE'S NOT THE ONLY CO-STAR YOU'VE WORKED WITH MANY
TIMES.
MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT YOU'VE REUNITED WITH SOME OF THE HORSES
THAT YOU'VE RIDDEN IN YOUR MOVIES.
>> YEAH, I HAVE, YOU KNOW.
>> Stephen: YEAH.
LIKE HERE YOU ARE IN GLADIATOR.
>> LET'S HAVE A LOOK.
CAN I LOOK.
>> Stephen: YEAH.
THAT'S GEORGE.
>> Stephen: THAT'S GEORGE?
YEAH.
SO MANY YEARS LATER, I WAS ON ROBIN HOOD AND GEORGE WAS
ASSIGNED TO ONE OF THE OTHER CHARACTERS.
BUT I HAD A LITTLE CHAT WITH GEORGE, BECAUSE THIS WHOLE --
THIS COMES FROM, I THINK IT FEELS LIAM NEESON SAID THAT HE
BELIEVED A HORSE HE WORKED WITH EARLIER RECOGNIZED HIM, AND I
RESPONDED ON SOCIAL MEDIA, WELL, OF COURSE, YOU DON'T THINK
YOU'RE GOING TO GO TO WORK OR HOLIDAY AND OCOME BACK AND YOUR
DOG DOESN'T RECOGNIZE YOU.
SAME THING WITH A HORSE.
IF YOU HAD A DEEP RELATIONSHIP WITH A HORSE OR COW, FOR THAT
MATTER, ALL ANIMALS WILL REMEMBER YOU IF YOU'VE CONNECTED
WITH THEM.
I HAD A THING WITH GEORGE.
>> Stephen: TEN YEARS LATE THERE ARE HORSE RECOGNIZED YOU?
>> OH, YEAH.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
AND I WENT UP TO GEORGE, AND I SAID TO HIM, VERY QUIETLY,
HELLO, GEORGE.
AND HE SORT OF PUT HIS HEAD DOWN AND SORT OF PUSHED INTO MY CHEST
A LITTLE BIT.
AND I SAID, DO YOU REALIZE, WE WON THE ACADEMY AWARD?
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: THAT'S NICE.
AND CALL ME CRAZY, HE GAVE ME EVERY INDICATION HE ALREADY KNEW
THAT.
>> Stephen: YOU STILL HAVE A BAND, 30 AUGHT FOOT OF GRUNT?
>> THAT DISBANDED BUT THANKS FOR KEEPING UP.
( PIANO RIFF ) ( APPLAUSE )
JUST A LITTLE COMEDY OF THERE, STEVE.
I JUST DID A LITTLE COMEDY.
( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: YES.
THEN IT BECAME ANOTHER THING AND ANOTHER THING.
RIGHT AT THE MOMENT, I HAVE A BAND CALLED INDOOR GARDEN PARTY.
WE'VE JUST BEEN RECORDING IN STOCKHOLM.
BUT THE LAST TIME WITH INDOOR GARDEN PARTY IS CALLED THE
MUSICAL AND THAT'S ON iTunes AND SPOTIFY AND THAT SORT OF
STUFF.
WHEN IT CAME OUT, IT WENT TO NUMBER ONE IN THE UK.
VERY BRIEFLY.
>> Stephen: WH WHAT KIND OF MUSI ARE WE TALKING?
>> INDOOR GARDEN PARTY IS FIVE PEOPLE, FOUR SIRNTION AND A
PRODUCER.
BUT ALL THE SINGERS PLAY INSTRUMENTS AND WRITE AS WELL.
SO THE ALBUM PLAYS MORE LIKE A PLAY LIST THAN A TRADITIONAL
ALBUM.
BECAUSE THE VOICE AND THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE BAND CHANGES
SO DRAMATICALLY BUT THAT'S WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT DOING IT.
>> Stephen: DO YOU TRADEOFF INSTRUMENTS?
>> YES, WE SWAP THINGS AROUND AND IT'S VERY FREE IN THAT WAY.
WE TEND TO BRING GUESTS ON.
SO YOU NEVER KNOW, WHENEVER YOU GO INTO A GARDEN PARTY, WON'T BE
THE SAME.
>> Stephen: MIGHT BE A HORSE.
IF IT'S A BIG ENOUGH VENUE.
ONE WHERE WE'VE GOT TWO MEANS OF EGRESS.
( LAUGHTER ) YOU BROUGHT UP THE HORSE
>> STEPHEN: "THE LOUDEST VOICE" PREMIERES JUNE 30 ON SHOWTIME.
RUSSELL CROWE, EVERYBODY!
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH A PERFORMANCE BY THE RACONTEURS.
