I loved it! We also got some good insight into the show. My favorite parts were:

"There are 26 letters in the alphabet. Which letter am I supposed to fire?"

and

Then he pulled out his ticket pad and said, "You know, Bob, I learned how to write on 'Sesame Street'!

lol. Great stuff there. :smile: I also had no idea he was a teen idol in Japan and sung some songs in Japanese!

Yeah, I think he said that if he hadn't booked Sesame Street, then he would have performed in Japan more or something.
