FLIP-FLOPPING THE U.S.,ROTTEN SHRIMP SALAD AND STICKY ATLANTA

WHEW....What a beatin'the last few days have been. After we played the show in New Hampshire (the live free or die state) we got up early and flew to LAX ,played a private party ,where i saw a diamond that had over a hundred carats,and then flew back to the ATL where I presently find myself. Did I ever miss the tour bus. Flying is such a miserable experience these days . On the way to California I was on the aisle and Doug our tour manager was in front of me . And next to me was a guy who weighed in at about 330 pounds .And across the aisle from me on the other side was this ignoramous' wife. Now on this 5 plus hour flight this moron is getting up every 30 minutes and when he does he is knocking Doug forward in his chair and sticking his ass in my face . Hershel who was a couple of rows back later told me he watched the whole thing in amusement , wondering who would snap first Doug or I. So then we were like 3 hours into the flght , he gets up and goes back to get his lunch for he and the wife. Now Hershel also told me later that when he saw that jumbo Legal Seafood restaurant bag come out of the overhead , he knew sparks were going to fly. So he gives the wife her lunch, on my left and he opens his, on my right . AND......WHEEEEEEEW SWEET MARY AND JOSEPH.... the smell that came off of those three hours old,sitting in the hot overhead compartment, giant shrimp salad sandwiches . It would knock a buzzard off of a sh*t wagon ...Doug turns around in horror at the stench,and I am about to hurl and the whole plane is like nauseated and the stench wont go away . So i say to him "So you actually made the conscience decision to rock the shrimp salad on a 757 packed with people ." He turned to me and grunted .I swear to you .....Arent people wonderful........
We got in last night like at 1:30 am and I saw Queensrych's tour bus at our hotel . It is cool they carry a trailer behind their tour bus with their motorcycles in it ..they now how to live..
We are in the great state of georgia tonight and I dont know if you know it or not . But "Wicked Game " broke out of Atlanta to become a hit . A DJ here started playing it after he saw the movie Wild At Heart and it took off....Tip O' the tam-o-shantern to that wonderful gentleman. Oh yeah Nicholas Cage was in Wild At Heart. When Lisa Marie Presley was on tour with us 3 years ago. He came to see her at the melody tent in Cape Cod. Now picture this he was in disguise! But here was his disguise . He like , had on 400 dollar denim pants, along extremly fake looking black wig ,and a cowboy hat that made him look like a drug dealer from 1972. And everyone else was in shorts and a t-shirt because it was roasting ...The fist thing that happened when he walked in was everyone dropped their work and stared at this wierdo looking guy . They didnt know it was Nick Cage but everyone was wondering what time machine he stepped out of .
It is hot and sticky here like us whussy Californians dont know anything about .I walked abut 2 blocks to the mall and i thought I was going to pop a vein. So I know that Chastain park ,where we play tonight is going to be "mucho Color".....
It seems like every time we play at Chastain it rains ...but I love the crowds in Atlanta .Great town .
