Nice to hear they made it to Los Angeles -- to play a PRIVATE PARTY...!
On behalf of all the Los Angeles fans who don't get to see you on this tour....thanks for letting us know about that gig buddy...

Sorry to hear that - I have no idea why Chris doesn't play Los Angeles (unofficial) capital of California. You'd think there'd be a big audience for him there, and more than a few bucks in it for him, but.... However, I just had to pop in here to compliment you on your topic heading - it's the best one I've seen since I've been here!

Guest, what do you mean in your heading for this topic right after you put "Kenney's latest blog"? I can't understand it.

Thanks, I was very frustrated when I read the first line of Kenney's blog and saw the words 'we flew into LAX...' -- is he kidding me -- our airport?! I felt better when I learned the gig was down in Carlsbad -- but still, how about a break, people???
If anyone other than me would like to see the band play Los Angeles, write to the HOB on Sunset Boulevard and demand they book the guys! Barrage them with letters! Get Silvertone's collective butts in this town before the tour is a memory!!!!

Someone explain to Deanna what my title meant....she seems so innocent!

Ms.L, sorry I didn't know what your title meant. I did know it was for swearing, but what were you trying to say? Yes some people down here in Texas do cuss.

I believe that the "*&$%#$#@@" was meant for general swearing. They OP wasn't trying to say (or swear) anything specific. It was an expression of frustration.
Do you understand? Just wondering.

Hey Deanna,
It was an expletive (sp?) that Kenney used in the title of his latest blog - an expressive descriptive.....that's all.....

Glenn Frey made use of the same expression when he introduced himself at the Eagles Farewell 1 concert that I went to in November 2004. (Wonderful show btw and if you haven't seen the DVD then give it a whirl. They recorded over 3 nights and I was there for one of those shows and also got a couple of passes to go along for free to see them record the acoustic segment a couple of days later. Fantastic. And all of you in the US can see the infamous Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne, that I keep whingeing about - that's where the DVD was recorded ... but I digress

)
Anyhow (and this intro wasn't used on the DVD, for obvious reasons!) Glenn said "I'm Glenn Frey, from Detroit, Michigan ... where mother is only half a word."
(I don't have it in me to tell poo stories just at the moment Cheryl (I rather suspected that's what you were referring to ...oh dear!) Things are very, very difficult on the home front right now and I might be missing for I don't know how long. But I will regale you with them one day, when you've forgotten you broached the subject

)

No, it was not an expletive darling Kenney used in the title of his latest blog.
It was an expletive I used when I found out through Kenney's blog the band had flown into LAX and still not played Los Angeles, a town which has gone ignored for some time now when they tour...

Flying SUCKS!
It's like taking a Greyhound bus -- but worse.
There's no civility up there enclosed in that too small tube filled with too many people!

(First of all, sorry, but the quote/reply thing doesn't appear to be working right now)
To Guest who hates LAX Airport ~ I feel your pain, but you should try landing there as a FOREIGNER.

My friend's hubby flies over to the States regularly on business (he works for IBM and is based out of South Carolina a lot) and every time he arrives there from Aus, he is fingerprinted, photographed, and generally treated like sh*t by the customs people apparently. The same friend's mother has just got back from doing the 'Gold Leaf Train' trip through Canada (that's the glass-topped roof train) and she was given the same treatment - and she's a little old lady

So, just be thankful you don't have to go through customs there as well, lol.
Stuff ~ I am SO sorry to hear about what's happening at the moment. I know too well of what you're speaking. You have all my love and best wishes, as usual. Don't hurry back here - this place should be low priority compared to the REALLY important stuff...'Stuff'.

LOL...everytime I think of LAX I think of a big group of us walking through on our way home from a cruise. We were walking down this looong hallway and my friend Dan says, 'Take a good look around you...some day this will allllll be underwater! ". Probably not that funny to you folks, but we got a chuckle out of it!

If anyone has seen Al Gore's documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" or believes in global warming at all, it's not just LAX that will be under water, so I wouldn't be laughing too soon...!

Well, considering I'm smack dab in the middle of the country, with no big bodies of water and quite a ways from a fault line, I can laugh for quite a while, because if water comes up this far, EVERYONE is screwed!

Yes, but it's no longer just about earthquakes...I was referring to global warming and the fact that A LOT will be under water some day.... polar ice caps melting, etc....
I don't know if "An Inconenvient Truth" has reached Australia yet.

Back to Kenney's latest blog. I laughed out loud when I read it at my desk this week. I shared it with a co-worker, who thought it was a riot too -- so much so, that she read the earlier blogs as well. I was sitting there at my computer when she says "Who's Tristan Prettydude?" I had forgotten that Kenney called Tristan Prettyman, "Prettydude"......pretty darn funny. Thanks, Kenney, for the laughs. I've sat with some less than desirable plane companions, but yours take the cake.
