Brian: I was jealous of how [Harry] spent his birthday in a Tokyo hi-fi vinyl bar reading a novel. That's who he is. These hi-fi bars are amazing, they have them in Tokyo, where you have a $50,000 stereo and rule of silence. I love that that's where he enjoys spending his time. Rob: For his birthday specifically, that was a classical hi-fi bar. But same kind of thing. Rule of silence, everyone just listens. That level of devotion.
