    a sad day indeed

    I met Wesley once, he actually wrote a song about that night called "The Ghostbusters got busted," see if you can find it on Mp3.
    He was the largest and funniest dude. He stood 6-5, 375. The first thing he said to us at the party was "I'm gonna kill you motherfuckers, suck my motherfucking dick!"
    While all of us fell silent in fear, he then laughed and said, "I just told a motherfucking joke!"
    He also told us he was going to name his new record, "Michael Jackson sucks little boys dicks."
    I gave him a copy of my band, Subshine's Cd. He said, "I'm gonna put this motherfucker in my motherfucking CD playa, cause I loves the rock and roll."
    Still my proudest moment as a musician.
    We will miss you big guy.
    Rock over Paradise, Rock on Heaven.

    Check out the to learn more about link,he really was a trip,what a honor to have met him Scooter.Did anyone see Inside(out)on VH1 last night about Warren Zevon? He has terminal lung cancer,but what an insperation he is.I'm buying The Wind for sure.

    I take it nobody did.


By Skooter on Monday, August 25, 2003 - 05:29 pm:

    I did see the Warren Zevon special. I was never a huge fan, though who doesn't love "Werewolves of London".
    I'm buying that record though. That was one of the better documentaries I've seen in a long time. Bruce rocks. I would have loved to be in the studio with Tom Petty, Bruce and Zevon, plus Billy Bob.
    Dont like the Eagles though.
    Zevon is still alive right? Tough old bastard.


By J on Monday, August 25, 2003 - 06:15 pm:

    Yes,but last I heard he's bedridden.

    I'm also planning on getting Wesley's greatest hits vol 3.
    His death affected me in strange and deep ways. We sat around the fire out under Mars swapping Wesley stories and sayings.
    "Rock it like a Magikiss, whoop you like a llama's asshole."

    I never knew much about him, except that he did that Werewolves song, which I always found annoying. Sounds like he led a pretty interesting life.


By J on Tuesday, September 9, 2003 - 05:19 pm:

    Stevie Nicks did a beautiful rendition of his song Reconsider Me.I loved his defiant personality,and he still looked good at 56.I'm glad he lived to see his twin grandbabies.He put off treatment to record his final Album The Wind.Keep Me in Your Heart is a beautiful goodbye.

    I'm listening to the new Iron Maiden for the third time since I picked it up at 130 today. More listens are in the que. It's really damn good. I'm not sure it's as good as the last one, but it's close.
