If I had to choose a personal Schaefer moment, it would be swimming across a lake near Tanglewood together when we had gone up for a remote broadcast, or perhaps his reaction after Sir Paul McCartney ate all of the dark chocolate during a live intermission interview at Carnegie Hall.
Go for another 30 years, John!
