Lou met Metallica at an awards show or something like that.
Lou: "Hey we should get together some time and make a record."
Metallica: "Sure, let's do it some time." (Yeah right, we'll never see him again.)
Lou sees them a year later at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame show....
Lou: "Hey I've got it all set up to make that record together."
Metallica: "Oh 17."
