Living Out Loud Quote

Drunken Fan: I swear sometimes you make me cry.
Liz Bailey: Oh yeah?
Drunken Fan: Yeah, 'cause when you sing, it's not about just you. It's not about just NOW... it's about the whoooooole BLACK experience. When black people, I mean African-American people sing sentimental songs, it's not just sentimental, they're not sentimental at all right? [soliciting agreement from Pat and Judith]
Drunken Fan: And do you know why?
Liz Bailey: Why?
Drunken Fan: Because of the pain to back it up.
Liz Bailey: That's right... you're right. I have the pain. I'm FULL o' pain. Well you know what?
Drunken Fan: What?
Liz Bailey: Thank you for coming.
Drunken Fan: [effortlessly taking the hint and rising from table] I think you are SO great... you keep on singin'... you keep on singin' now.
Liz Bailey: I got plenny o' bad times left to sing about don' chew worry... get home safe!
Drunken Fan: OK, bye. [camera pans to Pat and Judith who laugh as the woman leaves]
Liz Bailey: Bye. [turning to Judith]
Liz Bailey: . This is YOUR fault!
