THE SHOW

went real well it was our "Fourth of July/Warp Tour" is in the area show. Chuck was very soar from a professional massage he got last night, lot's of grunting, groaning and stretching. Stacey took issue with the way the opening night party for the new bar owed by Tommy Lee and Dave Navarro was being run and Liz was mad at me because I asked Steve van Doren if he could send a different pair of Vans she didn't like the ones that had the skulls. All in all it was a fun one even with all the phone traffic we were dealing with.

THE GUESTS

Steve Van Doren - heir to the vans sneakers fortune and currently on tour with the Vans warped tour called and was very thorough with all of the details of the tour so far he gave us a really good sense of what its like to be on the Vans Warp Tour which he's been on for the last 10 days. Matt from No Use for a Name phoned. I have known Matt for years he was the original bass player in Face to Face and i've been out on several tours with him he was in good spirits and excited about the new no use for a name album. M from Tsunami Bomb called in good spirits as well this is the final warp tour show for them and it was nice to talk to her. Raul ran in to News Guy Willie who he probably handed the phone to so we caught up with willie and and all that is in his world. We got a call after the show from Jordan from Strung Out so we couldn't really talk to him.
