So you can expect some work to be getting done. Let me tell you about some hot celebrity sightings in Los Angeles.

Robert: 140 Train in Vain - The Clash I had a dream last night that the bus accidentally left me in the Siberian town of Vladavostok while I was looking for a postcard. Eventually I was forced to take up residence there and it became much like an odd sitcom. August 13, 2001
Robert: 141 Every Shining Time You Arrive - Sunny Day Real Estate Hello everybody. It's 8 PM in Chicago, but it's a mere 6 in LA. I'm hanging at the hote and i just finished watching True Hollywood Story: Anthony Perkins... and it occured to me at that moment - here I am right now, nestled (somewhat) comfortably in True Hollywood. There is an amazing pool here. *** As soon as we rattled into town, we went right to the House of Blues, took note of the exciting surroundings, made plans, and then called our designated hotel to get directions to it... We were disturbed to find out that the hotel was actually in Studio City - about 20 or so minutes by car (bus). So we hopped in the coach and Mean Gene the Bus Drivin Machine rolled us over to the Beverly Garland. As we pulled up, we took note of the not-so-exciting surroundings and made plans to get the heck out of there ASAP via cab, coach, or golf cart... back to the moving and the shaking... "I'm sorry, sir, but we have no record of anyone from your party staying here." So, after a few phone calls, we were told that our TRUE (hollywood) hotel was actually back from whence we came. Steps from where we called for directions. Within a rocks throw from the venue. Back in the high life... Just in time, we rescued Todd from the clutches of a nearby car rental facility, and rocked back to this here rock. There is an amazing pool here. Todd and Damon have secured rental cars and I rode with to one of my most favoritest restaurants on earth, Astro Burger. I wholeheartedly enjoyed a "chicken" sandwich with "mayonaisse"... along with the usual order of large fries. No hot water in the shower. From the window, I have a good sporting view of a Tommy Hilfiger sign, a Gap sign, a parking lot, and in the smoggy distance - the Los Angeles skyline. It's beautiful outside, but I'm relaxing inside. But not for long. I'm getting out of here. The tour is in San Diego for 2 days, which means we brave the fortunes of LA by our lonesomes, well, just me, really. And I can't stay cooped up forever. Maybe I should take a nap. Drink some Red Bull. Buy some hotel items that they have stocked in the fridge here. Explore my way to the bus. Microwave up some soy chorizo/potato rollups. I really don't care. Movie theaters 6 blocks away. It's 6:15. There's nothing too exciting the fridge. Sprite. Water. Orange Juice. Boring. Tour is the most amazing feeling in the entire world. So much so that days off like this... can be a drag. Just got a call. A call to shop. Will I heed this call? August 12, 2001
Robert: 142 Stars Fell on Alabama - Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong 143 Trailer Trash - Modest Mouse I see 4 days in an LA hotel in my future... Speaking of future, our album has a release date: August 22... if you live in Japan. |
