11:36 pm
>> jimmy: thank you. howdy. how are you doing? thank you very much. thank you for joining us here at the long center in austin, texas. that's very nice of you. well, that is greatly appreciated. i don't want to leave either but i have to leave because if i stay any longer my body will turn into brisket. and i will have no choice but to eat myself. i really do have to go home. none of my clothes fit anymore. my socks are even tight. that's when you know. i had to buy a new suit. my head is so fat i had to put a hat on it. when we get back to l.a. i'm
11:37 pm
going directly to zumba without hesitation. i'm going to miss being here, i'm going to miss all of you, i really am. [ cheers and applause ] you know what i have to say? i kind of feel like you guys should stop having fun when we leave. i don't like the idea of it going on without me. but we're not done yet. we're closing things out tonight in a big texas way with the great and powerful willie nelson who is with us. [ cheers and applause ] if any of you are still selling girl scout cookies this could be your lucky night. last night bill murray was here, which was just great, unbelievable. all the funny things you hear about bill murray are true. he's just funny all the time. bill was talking about how important it when is you're out drinking to drink water. he feels very strongly that you should have one glass of water for every drink you have.
11:38 pm
so after the show we went out to see some live music. we went to see a rapper called earl sweatshirt who bill kept referring to as sweatshirt joe. when we got there, mr. sweatshirt was nowhere to be found. but there was a rap group on, somewhere in the neighborhood, i think 175 people on stage. there were more people on stage than in the audience. not one of them was playing an instrument. so we stayed for a while. and there was no earl sweatshirt. we went to another place. the police had shut the music down. we went to another place and we saw a band called waves. and it seemed like they were good but it was hard to tell because we got there toward the end of their last song. we left there and went to another place. went to like 19 places. and somehow, bill murray found water everywhere we went. he was not kidding about the water. every drink we got was
11:39 pm
accompanied by a bottle or glass of water. at one point he went to the bar and came back with a round. he put it down, i thought it was vodka, it was water. end of the night i am beat, i'm ready to go, we get in the car, my wife and i were about to pull away. all of a sudden there's banging on the side of the car. we rolled the window down. and there's bill murray with two bottles of water in his hands. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] this is true, i'm not making one bit of this up. he goes, sparkling and flat. and throws them in the car and disappears into the night. and by the way, look what happened. bill murray told us we need water, all of a sudden it's pouring rain here. like we spent the night with a wizard. i should mention that, all this eating and drinking we've been doing for a good cause. or at least guillermo has. beginning of the week we weighed guillermo. the moment he stepped off the plane from l.a., i weighed him. he clocked in at 192.4 pounds.
11:40 pm
and for every pound guillermo gained this week we're donating $2,000 to a local austin charity called urban roots. [ cheers and applause ] it's an organization that helps people, young people, with food and farming. now it is time for the moment of truth. ladies and gentlemen, please look to the skies. i give you guillermo, guillermo! [ cheers and applause ] ♪ [ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> guillermo: hi, everybody! >> jimmy: let me help you get your chains off. >> guillermo: wow. i need water.
11:41 pm
i need energy. >> jimmy: that won't come off. send him back up! >> guillermo: no! >> jimmy: did you like being up there? >> guillermo: it was a little scary. >> jimmy: it was? >> guillermo: yeah. >> jimmy: why was it so scary? >> guillermo: too high. >> jimmy: that one came off no problem. all right, let me get this one off. oh, this one came off on its own. that's good. [ laughter ] >> guillermo: oh my god. >> jimmy: all right, so again -- are you ready to weigh in? >> guillermo: yes. >> jimmy: okay, the number when we got here was 192.4 pounds. let's find out what you weigh now. jump on that scale, guillermo. here we go. guillermo weighs -- 199.2 pounds! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: congratulations. >> guillermo: wow.
11:42 pm
>> jimmy: 7 pounds. that's a pound a day. a pound a day. so i guess that means we'll donate $15,000 to urban roots. congratulations, guillermo. >> guillermo: thank you, everybody! >> jimmy: we'll get you one of those seat belt extenders for the flight home. meanwhile, the south by southwest festival which is the reason why we came here this week goes on until sunday. the keynote speech was delivered this morning by snoop dogg. snoop dogg spoke about the future of the music. his speech went great but he was a little freaked out by the screen full of words that seemed to know everything that he was about to say. it's a big deal to give the keynote speech, very prestigious. previous speakers have included johnny cash, neil young, bruce springsteen, lady gaga. so snoop took this very seriously as you can see in this video he posted to instagram this morning shortly before he
11:43 pm
spoke. ♪ >> i like to cha-cha! >> jimmy: that's right. oh, i guess his glaucoma was acting up. we've had -- we've had such a great week. this is our second time coming to austin which means it's getting serious and the next time i expect to meet your parents. but everywhere i've been, people have been lovely. so i wanted to say a few words. but why say words when you can sing words? and i hope you'll bear with me, i have no voice left after very late nights here. i would like to summon the spirit of julio iglesias to let you know just exactly how i feel. ♪ ♪ to austin i can't love you

12:24 am
by the time they went bankrupt in 2006, they had over 192 stores around the world. and so when i found out about that drugstore, because coming from sacramento, tower's a point of civic pride. but i didn't know much about its history. when i found out about that drugstore, i instantly just went, well, that sounds like a documentary. if it starts there and ends there and it involves the music industry, i'm sure there are a lot of really great stories. >> you have all these people, elton john, bruce springsteen, dave grohl, talking about what tower meant to them. dave grohl worked at a tower records store. >> he worked at tower records in virginia. >> jimmy: elton john would go in all the time. >> elton, they would open the store early for elton. he would have his limo driver carry a box, elton had a list of records and he'd buy three, one for each one of his houses. he did that for decades. >> those are great. just going through the record store. now we get everything so easily. it's not the same.

i know we romanticize everything, but -- >> it's like the way i look at it, i don't remember -- when i look at a certain album i don't remember, i remember where i was when i downloaded that, it was so great. know what i mean? >> jimmy: i was at home. >> i was at home in my underwear. great, oh, and then i just danced the night away. so for me, it's something about record stores and going and that physical interaction, that personal connection. but then also tower itself, it was such an amazing company. there were people that worked at tower. they started as clerks. they worked there for 30 years. ended up basically the highest of the food chain there within the company. there were people that spent a huge chunk of their life there. >> jimmy: i was one of them. >> and then when they went bankrupt, they all had to fire each other. so it's really a very human story. it's really not so much a documentary about the music industry so much as it is about this misfit family that came together and took over the world and had a lot of fun doing it. >> jimmy: it's excellent.
