Hollywood's
still recovering from the Slime Dogs visit... and that was
only part of the band!
What
do you get when you leave Jo & Krispy alone in Hollywood
for a night?
TROUBLE!
While
Grant and Fernando were introducing the world to rebelSonic
at the NAMM show, those crazy girls took on the town...
and every bar in their way! It
is lucky for LA that the boys made it back just in time!
With
only three days to explore and see everything that is
Hollywood we did it all. Our luxury hotel at the base
of the Hollywood sign became a weird and wonderful
new home... from our frightening knock on the door
from a derange fellow named "Roy" who wanted to talk
us about life... to the incredibly strange Snow White
Lounge in the breezeway to the parking lot and the
best restaurant "the
101 cafe" it
was a rock'n'roll haven... tattooed waitresses and breakfast
burritos!
We only almost once ended up in jail and that was when
Troy the armed security guard informed Grant that it
actually was illegal to drink nonalcoholic beer in
public as it did have 0.5%... we retreated to our luxury
room...
Monday turn into a day of car travel as we went to
Universal Studios and found out it was a tacky amusement
park not a studio, so off to Highway #1 and then we
walked the ever so strange and slimy Venice
Beach,
where Fernando used his business skills to negotiate
the purchase of a fine plastic Obama watch for only
$15 including replacement batteries.
Tuesday was spent on serious shopping with lots of beverage
breaks at well stocked outdoor cafes under the palms of Melrose
Avenue. But the topper of the trip is when the crazy bitches
went wig shopping! JoJo landed the deal of all deals with an
authentic and finely tuned Amy
Winehouse head piece and Krispy
looked ever so cute in her crazy 70s Afro...and to show how
brave alcohol can make you... they wore them out to a very
swanky Hollywood nightclub where JoJo made a special solo performance
on the piano...
Hollywood will never be the same. All we can
say it is a good thing for California that we didn't have the
whole band there!
