  • -I follow you on Instagram, all the socials,

  • but on Instagram.

  • I like to see what you're up to. It's fun.

  • And you did this thing once that I saw recently

  • where you went ax throwing.

  • -Yeah, I was out -- Yeah, I was out with the band.

  • We were playing in the South someplace, and we had a day off.

  • And I saw this place where you can throw axes and drink beer.

  • [ Laughter ]

  • So that seemed like a pretty winning combination.

  • -No, no, that's a terrible idea.

  • Do you do that often?

  • -No, I've never done it before.

  • So I texted everybody in the band, everybody in the crew.

  • There was like maybe, I don't know, 10 guys.

  • Nobody wanted to do it with me.

  • So I went by myself and threw axes and...

  • -Drank beer? -Drank beer, yeah.

  • -And it was fun? -It was fun, yeah.

  • I liked it.

  • There's something very satisfying about it.

  • -You actually posted a video.

  • Here is Kevin Bacon ax throwing.

  • Take a look at this.

  • -Come on!

  • [ Laughter ]

  • -I mean, that was good.

  • [ Applause ]

  • I mean, I don't know.

  • I was saying to you backstage,

  • I know it looks cool and everything

  • because you're like, "Come on."

  • But I didn't see you throw an ax.

  • -No, you don't actually see --

  • -I see an ax land and you enter from a different angle.

  • [ Laughter ] There's conspiracies.

  • You like pop up from under the ax.

  • -Yeah, I know. I know. -"Come on!

  • Look at what I threw!" [ Laughter ]

  • It came from over there. -I know, I know.

  • -How do we know it's you throwing it?

  • -Well, first off, there was nobody there to shoot

  • the video for me, so I had to take the phone and set it up

  • on the edge of the ax-throwing booth or whatever,

  • because I was alone, as I already established.

  • -How sad.

  • -And so, I realized after I posted it

  • that there is absolutely no evidence

  • that I actually can throw an ax.

  • And I'm not sure if I can. I don't know.

  • -Well, there's one way to find out.

  • [ Cheers and applause ]

  • Do you want to see if you can hit a bull's-eye right now?

  • You want to do it?

  • We got it set up.

  • [ Applause ] Come on.

  • Come on, you got to try it.

  • I'll give you three shots. I'll give you three chances.

  • Alright, let's do this. Here we go, come on.

  • -What are these axes?

  • [ Cheers and applause ]

  • Wait a second. These have rubber tips on them.

  • Can I take off the rubber?

  • -No, you have to leave the rubber tips on.

  • -The rubber will never -- Is that comedy?

  • -No. Exactly, right? No.

  • -A little joke at my expense? -For safety.

  • Kevin Bacon throwing an ax.

  • [ Cheers and applause ]

  • -Alright, there's one. -That's one.

  • -Can I keep the rubber tip? [ Laughter ]

  • -Alright, that's number one. Here we go.

  • Kevin Bacon throwing an ax.

  • [ Cheers and applause ]

  • Come on!

  • [ Cheers and applause ]

  • He's a dangerous man! He's a dangerous man!

  • That's how you do it!
