I went to it from nashville. I painted the logos on my head and wore red knee socks, red shiny shorts and a red t-shirt.IT took 5 hours even though I went 90mph almost the whole way. I met up with another soldier on the list and we made out. real nice kid.I don't remember the gender but, yeah beautiful a person. angelo was spinning tracks up in the corner when I came in, so I bought a shirt and video (ugh!40$) and had him sign 'em. he actually yelled down the offer. I asked him about the hollywood deal and he said, they're "still tryin". then we talked about the friends of fishbone record and I jokingly said "you're gonna get mr. bungle and everyone in on that right?" HE said "dude yeah!If bungle would play on that, it would be just awesome!" I said bungle would be a good one to play "irritation".and he didn't know what the fuck I was talking about. he asked if irritation was one of thier songs and I said "no it's yours!y'know 'woman made me mad,woman made me sad, I just can't handle it," Then I realized I was singing 'love&bullshit' so neither one of us knew our titles. Later something similar happened, we were sitting out side after the show, and some people were asking about his theremin.i said, "I liked that one you had in the briefcase. that was pretty slik...on that viva variety..show." AM:"what" "you know,..when you played on that TV show this year on comedy central.just allow..." AM:"...oh yeah, with the briefcase theremin, yeah." anyway, the drummer was alot better than I expected.he had his confident fills and played the punk stuff firmly up to speed. epsecially on "warmth". angelo's gonna let me tape friday.I know I left the obvious stuff out, but I am a spagetti brain now after no sleep and gotta' go to my 9:00 class. SO, I let the other "Rob" post the setlist and stuff.(we both got one.) rob "redman".

ok, I wanted to give my run down of the show before i go back to sleep, but i'm kind of out of it still this morning, so bare with the nonsense. I picked up a shirt at the beginning and then got Angelo to sign it. I tried to tell him about the list being at 150 people, he had no clue though. He was like, you mean the web page. I said no the place where we all get together and email back ...

I arived at the club early to see the soundcheck and see if the band could sneak me in, being it was an 18+ show. The soundcheck consisted of "Beer Gut", "Just Allow", and "Pray to the Junkie Maker". After the soundcheck I talked to Spacey T about getting in and he was real cool and put me on the guest list. The opening band Kid Rock were white rap kinda stuff, I thought they pretty muc...
