I still listen to their stuff. Good South Bay band. Pat Travers is another one of my favorites.

I think you should combine all of them into one story and let us figure it out :D:

Now that would be a rock and roll story! That would be fun to let you figure out who did what and when and where and why! I will get my brain revving here and will try to post one of the tales from the radio archives later today!

No, I know not of AFI! Jello Biafra actually lives here in Colorado. He frequents the same used record and book store Ralphie and I do, called Black and Read. He is around a LOT. What a character he is!

Him and his damn snake...I told him to put the damn snake in a locker til he needed it for the show. He got all up in my face and stuck that snake in my face too until he realized I had the key to the building and was in charge so he better be nice to me. He actually turned out to be quite a polite dude. This was back around 1981! I love The Dead Kennedys and the Sex Pistols. Never got a chance to meet Sid, though I went as him for Halloween one year. That was when I had a shaved head (actually my hair was about an inch long all over with a tail and it stuck up all straight and crazy like a punk), wore leathers and rode a big old racing bike, a Yamaha XS650. :eek: Those were fun times! Wish I had a bike now, but because of Ralphies motorcycle accident, I am not allowed. It makes sense. He still cringes when he hears one go by with really loud pipes. Still, I miss the bugs in my teeth! :D: I have had a very interesting full life, I tell you. The things I fit into 20 years is amazing...but fun! :twisted: LOL!

I haven't done it in character, but I have done Dance Dance Immolation, which is DDR with flamethrowers. No, really: http://youtube.com/watch?v=2Wi5OxVG8mg


It was a lot of fun. I found the fire suit easier to move in than a lot of the character costumes (I was wearing my own shoes, for one thing), and of course it had much better visibility!

Last night, I was with some friends who are staying at a resort, so we were using the EMH at Studios. I guess one of the special things they do there is a dance party where Mickey and Minnie come out and dance with kids. Very cool.
