His family was there and Jackson Browne and John Mayer were our house band. John Stamos and Jeff Ross hosted it. We filmed it and I showed it to Netflix. I said, 'Look at this. Just look at 16 minutes of this.' Robbie Praw, the Head of Comedy at Netflix, said, 'This is remarkable.' And they bought it. There's a special. It airs the first week of June."
