• 1:18
  Speaker 1: I've done the Macy's a couple of times, that's a
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: cold one. I always think about the performers because you know,
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: they get you out there early, and it's we're talking
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: like ten degrees sometimes and to be singing in that,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: is that the coldest? Or do you what's the coldest
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: you've ever remember performing outside?
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: What about you?

  Speaker 3: I think I sang in Norway at.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: The novel that sounds free damn cold.
• 1:38

• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Day parade is next.
• 1:42
