Friday, Vicious Vern and me and his roomate went to Haus of Pizza and ate some good lasagna and had a couple of Italian beers. Bruce Juice came down for a moment. Vernon and I had a couple mixers, vodka tonics I think they were. Listened to a lot of punk rock. I didn't drink too much cuz I didn't want to be hung-over for the booze fest. Went home. Saturday the fun starts. Went to Schmitty's house and road down to the fest with Celeste and Mick. Once we got inside the park Schmitty and Bruce Juice went straight to beer stand. I was thinking maybe we should wait a couple hours but, you know you don't gotta tug my arm. I went for the cocktails, though. They were pretty mediocre. I had some sort of vodka cranberry deal. Most of the stands wanted tips too, at 5 bucks a pop, fuck no. Most of the early acts don't really stick in my mind, hell hardly any of them do now. Saw Rod and Rick from the Mighty Flyers on the small stage. Bruce Juice and Schmitty got there pics on the "Backporch Stage". While Bruce Juice answered a little Q&A. Saw Rod Piazza he was cool but I've seen him 18,0000000000 times. Decided to go back to Uncle Dave's hotel and watch the Laker game. Laker's kicked some asshole. Drank all of Uncle Dave's Coronas, but we replaced them later. The stupid bartender in the hotel lounge said she hates basketball and hates the Lakers so Schmitty told her that we really hated her, beeatch. Went and saw Charlie Musselwhite (aka Mr. Charlie White), featuring Rusty Zinn and Kirk Fletcher on guitar. He was pretty dope ass. Went back to Uncles Daves hotel for a moderate after party. Bruce Juice pushed Schmitty into a little fence and broke and he cut himself up, so that was fun. They grabbed the little bus stop sign and ran with it so the people would be confused. Those characters. Went back and ate stuff at Uncle Dave's hotel and ate munchies. Drank some beers and fun cigarettes were smoked. We kept daring each other to jump off the 4th story balcony onto the palm tree. I think Uncle Dave did it after we left cuz we never saw him the next day. Went up to some rib joint and met up with Mick and Celeste. Had more drinks don't remember which. Some creepy guy was playing some cover tunes. I think he was trying to get a free beer from the bartender. Bruce Juice and Schmitty were messing with some hispanic guys and got there picture taken with the creepy looking guy that wanted to kill them (not really though). Had a couple oatmeal cookie shots too. Went home in a limo, me and Bruce Juice were trying to find booze but there was none. The overweight afro-american middle aged cab driver kept talking about how she like Alice and Chains, I said that's too bad. Went to local bar Patsy's but I don't remember that. Part one the end. Oh yeah I almost forgot, we saw Charlie Musselwhite in the elvator in the hotel and scared the shit out of him. I think he got off on the wrong floor just to escape us. Bruce Juice and Schmitty got a picture with him. We got off on the same floor as him, then realized it was the wrong floor and I bet that really put a scare into him. We were all drunk and he's like an AA guy, we had beers in the elevator with us. I got a hearty handshake from Kirk Fletcher in the lobby. Hopefully we'll have a link to with pics you can check out soon. Ok really the end of part one this time.
