Last night Guns N Roses returned to St Louis for the first time in 26 years since the infamous riot (that we covered in the last podcast, Episode 107) This is Hoss' favorite band on the PLANET and he arranged a beautiful suite for us, catered with food and drinks, the works.
Below : Hoss in disbelief as Axl really does take the stage in St. Louis
With about 3 hours notice before the show I got wind that the band was doing a secret, charitable, Meet & Greet and went into hustle mode, not for me, but for Hoss. I have pulled off some serious shit in my life, but even I impressed myself with what we got to do. Here is Hoss, Traci Wilde and myself about 5 minutes before meeting the band.
Side note : We had to put our phones away backstage and we are waiting for the tour photographers photo of us with the band. And I'm still trying to recover my "Boob Cam" footage as we speak.
But then, when we thought NO STORY could top us going backstage....someone pooped their pants in our suite. Traci Wilde and I did some serious detective work and we explain the entire ridiculous story on the show.
And finally, talk to Stump this morning, who came to hang out with us in our suite last night. We caught up with him this morning to found out if Axl acknowledged him from the stage, and what he thought of the show. We also asked him if he felt any closure from all of this, Stump was a great interview and you're gonna want to hear what he has to say.
Bottom line is, if you wanna hang with The Kelly Manno show you got have your wits about you to keep up. Because you never know whats going to happen, when you're going to wiggle back stage, or sit in a suite with someone who shit their pants. You just go with the flow.
We are taking a 2 week break from the podcast to build a new and better website, and upgrade some equipment.
