you wouldn't get a plane for NAMM?... man, if i was able to snag a pass i'd be so there... my wife and I 'borrowed' some passes for a day at NAMM in Anaheim, CA...my pass said: Philip Kaheinamaha (the dude was Hawaiian...) and we see Jim Marshall sitting on a stool next to a beautiful English woman (looked like Elizabeth Hurley) and he was signing autographs on a free Marshall calandar...it was early and no one was there...so I walk up and tell Jim what a great product he has and how I've been playing it for bla bla years...bla bla..he asks me my name so he can sign the calandar and I say: Jim (and my last name)...and the woman looks at me with a big grin as I walk off with my bogus name tag and signed calandar...they are VERY strict about people not 'switching' name tags there...Steve Vai was there signing stuff too...but he's nobody...barely good enough to be my roadie. |

so get this, we have to wait for another plane to come from athens inorder to take us to rome...now, the plane was coming at around 3am the next day...the naples airport closes at 9pm...so a full plane load of people are in the airport after 9pm with no security around... all hell breaks loose...it was like lord of the flies... 1) some young dudes figured out how to work the intercom and were swearing over it... 2) people were fighting amongsty themselves 3) some dudes were making fun of this old guy at the end of the ordeal our flight finally landed...now a gang of like 7 dudes wanted to storm the plane (don't ask me why) and this lady started fighting with mom calling her names in english thinking tha we didn't understand english... so, i jump on this table... "everyone shut the fook up...shut the fook up!"...complete silence... "you motherfookers, leave that old guy alone and turn of that fookin intercom" "you a$$holes over, shut the fook up and sit down, noone's storming any planes" "lady, get the fook back in line we understand english"...lady turned white this old guy that some other dudes were picking on says..."he's right, we need to just calm down" i said, "now, i'm going to get off this table...if anyone else starts sh1T i'm going to go fookin insane...ok!!!!" no more trouble... LMAO!! Shreder you need to fly with Vomhalen, he will take care of ya! if ya freak out he will slap ya around and straighten ya up! |

I've had a few conversations already with Scott about NAMM,, hes into it, but he feels hes not ready for it yet. That will be FUN.
