Are you famous?

“Are you famous?”
My favorite question to get in the airport. I guess standing around the airport with a guitar on your back and a stupefied look on your face indicates to some that you’re in a band. Limp Bisquick maybe?

Kids, if you have to ASK whether someone is famous isn’t it rather clear that they aren’t? Never mind, it allows me the awkward opportunity to promote my new record; one coach passenger at a time. I guess I’m gonna be using up my miles.

So, L.A. was cool. Had a few meetings, spent some time with some friends old and new, and got squared away with a giant crystal dildo thingy… Otherwise known as a BMI award. I left it in L.A. ’cause it weighs too much to put in a carry on and I was afraid it would turn into a pile of glass beads in the cargo bin. So, I put it in a cab with a wad of cash and my address taped to the top.

Also, every time I take Dan Cohen to the Pacific time zone somebody breaks into his house. Dan is going to leave a key under the mat. Please stop breaking things. Take what you need and be on your way. And don’t let the damn cat out! There used to be some consideration in burglary. Class it up people.

Here are some clips of me caught on camera chewing gum; very cosmopolitan!

    Classic! Maybe they think you are Josh Homme from Queens of the Stone Age?

    Josh Homme would be a compliment! That dude is wicked good at his job. I should be so lucky!

    Ha! I saw a couple of cool-looking, guitar and Mac-toting guys at the Sacramento airport a couple of days ago and asked Dan that very question. He didn’t say anything about being famous, but told me about Jace writing the song from the HBO show. I saw the show once, so I must have heard the song. No groupies or bodyguards in sight. You seem like nice guys. Here’s one more nameless coach passenger who will be checking out your music. Best of luck with the UK tour!
