Am I the one person who understood this line the first time I heard it?? Ha.

LOL. I got it the first time I heard it but only b/c I loved ballet so much and knew how fast those darn shoes wear out! I can see now thought that it left a few people scratching their heads saying "WTF is Stevie trying to say now
?"

Seriously though, for those of you who don't know, professional dancers can go through several pairs a week each and for full-length ballets those shoes might last through 1 performance if they're lucky.
