Hey also, Wes found a big box of old photographs and I'm sure there are some of you in there, so keep your eyeballs peeled - I'll try to put them on my site whenever I get time - there are tons and I mean TONS of pics of just every damn body. I don't remember who half the people are & I took many of the pictures..
Hey Toni - you're probably hip to all of this stuff, but just in case you hadn't heard, Brian May finally got his doctorate ( I think...) in astrophysics. I didn't read the entire article, but here's a link that tells something about it. Initially I heard somebody mention it on late night radio & thought of you immediately, of course.
If that doesn't work, you can always Google it. :-)
Then, too - I've known of this for years - and again, always think of you - the all Japanese Queen Tribute band, Kween ? You know of them yet ?
Their main webpage is here:

When we used to travel a little, one of my favorite things to do when I was bored was to sing "Bohemian Rhapsody" with a fakey Japanese accent, switching all of the 'l's and 'r's. Try it some time - it's really fun, and you'll crack yourself up !! Our bands HATED it, though, they thought it was funny the first time, for about one minute, then "no more", but I'd do it all the way through a lot and they were all ready to frickin' kill me. I am such an asshole.
Hey, would you happen to have any current contact information - any kind at all - for J.R. ? I've tried every way I can think how, and cannot locate him at all. Bums me out. I love him, of course, but Wes really took a shine to him, too. And the kids as well, though we haven't seen them since they were.. I don't even know. I'd guess Isaac was maybe 6 or 7.
Thanks a bunch, Missy - LOTS OF BIG HUGS TO YOU!!!!
as always:
Toni - I added a Frank story at John Vitello's page - also - remember the time he had the mixer on too high and turned it on and created a tornado of flour in the kitchen ?!? MWHAHAHAHAHAH !!! We could see flour flying out of the doorway into the hall, and then Frank walks out - white cigar still clenched in his teeth, totally covered in flour !!
Toni! I remember yr mom's car, and watching all my children at yr house...
anyway, I'm a mom now too (1 girl, 9), still playing, working as a grant writer, good to see your name!!!!!!!

The last time I saw Frank (former proprietor of Leslie's I.V.) was back when I still ate meat about 8 years ago. I ordered a burger at Steak and Shake on the E. side, and he was working at the drive thru. My dog Memphis was in the back seat of the car. I chatted with him while he pet Memphis and fed him RAW hamburger with his bare hands. I watched him bag my order and ring me up all without washing his hands. I pulled away, unwrapped the burger and promptly fed it to Memphis as well. It was simultaneously my worst and Memphis' best fast food experience ever. "You're a sick fuck Frank"
Hi Toni! I was just thinking about you t'other day and here an email shows up with your name on it. I work in software all day long but I can't figure this damn site out. So I hope I just accepted your "friend" invitation. If not, could you help a geezer out?

Hey John!
Saw Elvis most recently May 16, 2008, with the Police in Orlando. In the $200+ ticket section people were so rude. I was standing thu Elvis, and people were bitching. They wanted to see the Police.
Also caught him a few times at House of...
I also transferred the one practice recording I have of Bloodcouch recently. It's a bit strange because the battery in the PZM mic we were using to record it was dying during the recording. Lon Paul would probably have been in possession of the vi...
