we were lucky enough Russell you came along to the Opera House for Nova's Red Room that night to see Edie that night and suddenly he's going I got this big tour coming up right here I can't do this thing where I'm like on water I've

got to be able to have a drink after the show sort of like you know help me relaxing I mean while I'm gone you're happy doing five six beers a night yeah so it's going to be it's going to be like I'll be twice the man after the piano

yeah and so I said look this is what I've been doing lately you know so I showed him I got a water jug in fact I took all of the things that I needed his show in backstage doing that with s keys and because I just I just wanted to do

it right wait on it here's the jug full to the top with ice take your bottle of silver Patron here empty the entire contents over the ice and now you wait he's like what do you want just a loss wait you've got to give like 10-15

minutes put a little bit of passion fruit on top I mean right then I take that mixture pour it over fresh ice right and a little touch of water okay so now you've got the ice is sunk into the yeah the tequila via your voice actually added fresh water as well and

you've got fresh right so there's a large amount of water in this clear and when he subsidies like wow that's really light and it's refreshing and you can do two or three of those again so we proceeded to actually knock off the entire bottle of tequila but he know

He's texting me at five o'clock in the morning on his way to sunrise. Okay, I feel fine. I got a few hours sleep and everything. You know what's the secret? I should make it's border right, because you're hydrating. Yeah, drink, I do have a

little bit of a drink, but you're not gonna get the killer hangover you know. And now he's always an alcoholic again. I saw him in London recently, you know, and he's like, 'Man, you got me so like in so much trouble.' And I'm like, 

what are you talking about? Yes, well you know I went to New York right and I had to have this dinner with this Rolling Stone guy, this journalist you know, and said so what you know, what would you like to drink together? I'll show you. Yes, Russell Crowe, Tommy, yes. And it took him

a while to find the passion fruit, but you know I'm pouring the tequila right, the same amount you know as you poured right, I'm putting the passion fruit on top and he's drinking it straight. So he's having four or five ounces of tequila, burglar know. 

He thinks you know he's had a normal night. He wakes up the next morning, speaks to his security, blood caffeine, a good, good man. Yeah, yes, yeah. Laughs. I was pretty good. I feel a bit rough, and I think in keV like stonyface, what's wrong? 

I think yet, and he's last night was all right, was it? Yes, yeah. Wasn't it? Yes. You took your shoes off in the middle of, we're in, man, not one of those fancy restaurants, and you're taking your shoes off. So what's going on with that, and 

everybody's looking at you and then you lick that woman's face you can you it's like I just walk he's getting really first calmness life is experience like this 3-hour blackout he's going what did you do to me Rona said I should've did you
