Almost Done!

James Brown- Front Row
Me and my date Fergie (Black Eyed Peas)
Waikiki Beach
Check back here for a tour wrap-up, countries I haven't covered, and a few more adventures since the end of the tour. Once that posting happens, I'll move back to my normal (non-Whitesnake) blog. Cheers!

Home Safe!

Current mood: Gleaning!

Smiling to myself in North Beach, San Francisco! The day is SOOO gorgeous and sunny. North Beach is the Italian part of town, with plenty of top-notch restaurants to choose from. It's 2pm- I made it home safely (after a LOOOONG day) and drove my car here today. I'm in the trattoria having chilled white wine with a Mista salad and the Rigatoni Bolognese is on it's way! Next to me is the laptop, and no less than 4 cell phones- don't ask. I'm setting up one of them, the Treo 700p, to replace my trashed Treo 650. Anyways... I'm soooo happy to be back. I've already been to the bank, and I'll go to the car wash next to wash my little reliable racer. It's an '88, but whoops butt! And it's mine. The tarmac at London Heathrow seems so long ago. Somehow they let my Bushmills through in my luggage. Sweet.
My heart is definatly here in San Francisco.

SHHHHEEEEEEET! Tryin' to get home!

I'm at the airport at an internet terminal. Crazy flight stuff today, as 9 flights to the US were targeted for bombing. Mass confusion at the airport, but they are being as accomodating as possible. ABSOLUTLY NO CARRY ON LUGGAGE! No water- no glasses cases- no cell phones- NOTHING! just your documents and a rigid checkthrough. My Basses are under the plane in the SOFT case, originally intended for carrying on. I'm finally in the terminal, but we don't have a gate, and my SF flight is delayed. Can't find anyone from our party either. The guys on the LA flight are delayed as well. ALL european flight are straight-out CANCELLED. I've got a splitting hangover from my last drinks with The Answer- such brilliant lads- I wish them much success. I'm still drunk I think, which makes it not as bad. Wandering Heathrow some more until the flight, if it ever gets off the ground. I'd just assume flying tomorrow. We'll see....
Slightly aggrivated (but still smiling)

Letter to Arti. RE: Burning Man


Thanks man!!! I'm in Budapest!!!

Waiting in the hotel room before the show. We might get rained out, as it's pissing cats and hounds here- thunder and lightning as well.
B-day was WICKED Italian food last night!
Apparantly Matt and Christina are here in Budapest, but I can't find 'em!
I also got thrown in a pool at the club- camera, phone and all....
I'll have pics soon- just not any from my camera (RIP).

So yeah- For Burning man...I'm with you, and would like to include my tight homies. I'm gonna give you a list- you'll know most of 'em. email's are in case you're doing any kind of organization for this new camp. I can't wait to be a part of it! It's hard for me to organize from here, so maybe a mass email would be great.



Me
Jesse
Craig
arti
yes (might not due to school)
trance
Ben (roommate, if he can)
Dorian (My brother in Detroit- maybe)
Ryan (doubt it, but we may kidnap him)


That's all I can think of for now. I know I'm there for sure, even If I drive and sleep in the Acura. Might pitch in and do the truck thing like in the past, unless I roll solo.
Things I (we) might need to know- when are you going up? where will you be? theme for the camp (Red Light, I'm assuming).

Cheers mate!

Que pasa Chico,

Happy Birthday!!!!

What part of the world you celebrating in?

Are you going to Burningman? and are you camping with my New camp or with Declan, Dougie & the rest of the old clan?

The new camp is called, (drum roll please) The Red Light District (R.L.D.)

Here are pix from the debut of the R.L.D. at an event called Elysium. Needless to say there was complete debauchery in effect.
